We have been shortlisted for the Aviva Community Fund to support the younger generation.
We want to run nature based creative activities for Lewisham’s young people in at The Wild Cat Wilderness.
If we win we will run free creative, nature-based workshops for young people in Lewisham during the 2015 summer holidays. At the Wild Cat Wilderness we can combine art with the great outdoors. Vote for us if you love – art, nature, being outside and Lewisham.

The aim of the activities is for young people to be naturally creative in this urban wilderness. They will play, learn and create whilst being outdoors and connect to the local natural world. They will discover an urban wilderness and learn about nature and wildlife, whilst being creative using natural and recycled materials and gain an understanding of the importance of conservation & the environment.
We will run 20 half-day creative workshops during August for young people aged 4-18 targeting different age groups and abilities. We aim to have 10 participants per workshop so we will reach 200 local children. The workshops will also allow parents, family members, guardians & carers to come & enjoy the space whilst the sessions are happening.
