Create Charity
Create is a registered charity (No 1099733) that uses the creative arts to empower lives. We design and deliver projects that enable those who are excluded through disability, disadvantage, ill-health, imprisonment, poverty or social isolation to participate in high quality creative arts experiences. All projects enable participants to develop creativity, learning, social skills and self-esteem. Some bring different groups of people together to breakdown barriers and develop shared understanding; others enable them to explore social concerns. Every project aims to help to create a society that is fairer, more caring and more inclusive.
