Create to Connect

In times like these, we recognise the importance of bringing people together, and know lots of you won’t be able to meet up in the same way as before. Create to Connect is a response to the impact of Covid-19 – an invitation to get creative at home and with others in your community – and see what happens along the way.

We will be hosting a month of daily creative challenges in May. This will be in collaboration with 31 different partners – including schools, libraries, workplaces, hospitals, community centres and more! This month of challenges is specifically designed to boost wellbeing and keep communities connected, curious and creative in uncertain times.

Alongside the daily challenges, you can download a free tailored activity pack to help you engage your communities (workplaces, students, families, service users, groups, neighbours…) in the challenges – online and offline. Download your pack here.

We trialled Create to Connect with two weeks of mini creative challenges from 23rd March – 5th April. You can find those challenges below.
