We have joined forces with Creative Minds and South West Yorkshire Partnership Foundation Trust (SWYPFT) to deliver a female-led training and mentorship programme for women aged 18-25 in Calderdale.

The Bloom programme will support participants to forge a career in the cultural-health sector by providing a range of training, mentoring and work placement opportunities over the course of three six month programmes. Crucially, it will also help to improve a wider group of participants wellbeing with an associated monthly support network that will build confidence and establish good self-care practices.

The funding for this project was gratefully received from The Pilgrim’s Trust and project partners. It will support delivery of the Bloom programme for three years, engaging over 300 women.

As the project progresses we’ll share updates on this page and via our mailing list.
