Everyone?
 |
Warwickshire Children's Fund project
2005
'Everyone?' is a project commissioned by the WCF and realised by CAW. It is an attempt
to listen to the needs of children and young people across Warwickshire and
to support and represent them.
The focus of this creative consultation has been the socially excluded groups
such as people from minority and mixed ethnicities and those coping with
disabilities.
CAW have produced an interactive media pack (DVD plus booklet) that can be used
to inform and enlighten teachers, youth & community workers, and service providers.
Contact Francis Godwin at CAW (01926 888333) for details.

Regional Arts Lottery Programme grant

In June 2003 CAW was successful in its bid to the Regional Arts
Lottery Programme from West Midlands Arts. Our bid emphasised the
importance of media facilities and opportunities for the local
population, outlining what access to such facilities can help
people achieve. With this grant CAW was able to purchase equipment
for music, film and video, and publishing.

Services - the day was a roaring success - with over a hundred
