Situation
Levels of child poverty in Doncaster is 2.5 times higher than the national average with low levels of arts engagement. Cast addresses the urgent need for positive and enriching activities for young people. Many local children lack access to creative outlets and constructive extracurricular programmes impacting health, well-being and aspirations. We aim to create a space where children in Doncaster can grow, build confidence, develop valuable skills and envision a brighter future.
Solution
At Cast, we enrich the creative and cultural lives of our local community through artistic experiences. Our youth programmes offer local children access to workshops, training and performance opportunities. Designed to be inclusive, our programmes provide bursaries so all children can participate regardless of their financial situation.
