An award-winning Salford based arts charity, we design and deliver performances, workshops and people-led creative projects for community groups, arts organisations and schools across the UK.
We believe that when people come together through theatre and art, they have the power to make change – and that it’s our responsibility to create accessible, representative spaces where they can give it a try.
That change can take place where it’s needed: in theatres, classrooms, community centres, libraries, on trams – and even in caravans – using whatever artform fits best: plays, podcasts, workshops, films and exhibitions. We’re changemakers and celebrators, working with people on their terms to collaborate, create and make tangible social action, together.
For Salford’s 100th birthday, we’re creating a podcast, exhibition and pop-up events, bringing together community groups and Salford artists.
Our Salford Voices Banner Exhibition and pop up will be hitting the road throughout 2026 touring all 8 neighbourhoods of Salford.
