Who, what, where
How this project supported Ragdoll Foundation aims
The trustees were unanimous in their enthusiasm for this proposal, which had a beautiful simplicity as well as being ambitious for participants. The project is well-suited to its setting, where young people feel unable to access the more established cultural organisations. The applicant had built good relationships with the local school, estate and college, which should help get the new project off to a flying start.
