More about our impact
Arts, culture & heritage
Through this project we employed a large number of creative professionals who worked with young people to show how the arts can be used to explore society and communicate values, ideas and opinions. We delivered four cultural events and created a new exhibition, film and theatre piece. Burnley Pride gave a large number of local artists the opportunity to perform and share their work.
Activity, health and leisure
Our project supported people in the LGBT+ community to take part in leisure activities together, including poetry workshops, public parades, theatre trips and performances.
