National recognition for CAW / Doorway 'A Place to Stay'
Artswork, the national youth arts development agency, held a year-long long national campaign for the English National Youth Arts Network in 2011. Their report on the campaign, ‘Youth Arts Transforms Lives – FACT!’ highlights the impact of a resilient, forward-thinking, innovative Youth Arts sector using a series of best-practice case studies.
The introduction to the report says:
"The statistics, case studies and articles drawn together from across England demonstrate the highest quality of Youth Arts practice currently being delivered by youth and arts organisations nationally. It includes awe-inspiring accounts from young people who recount their own personal experiences and journeys of learning through participation in the arts."
CAW's project with Doorway in Nuneaton, the dance film 'A Place to Stay', is one of the case studies, reflecting the quality of our project work.
Our project falls within the Health and Wellbeing Case Study section which runs from page 37 - 42 of the report which can be viewed here.
The dance film itself can be viewed on this page of our website.
