We empower young people to change their lives through the arts

Story

I'm braving the RIPON REVOLUTION cycle route (fell beast got cancelled!) in an attempt to raise some money for Contacting the World - an international cultural exchange project for young people. I am very nervous as to whether or not my little legs will be able to conquer the hilly climbs - so any support would mean a lot! 

CTW is a fantastic project that brings together young people from different parts of the world with the common aim of making new collaborative performance work. It is a unique experience that promotes cross-cultural understanding and empathy and gives young people the chance to build relationships and collaborate with peers from completely different backgrounds and cultural perspectives from themselves. 

I have a lot of love for CTW; I was a participant in 2012, a staff member in 2014 and am now Project Coordinator! It's a truly life changing opportunity for everyone involved and can really open your eyes to the world! For more information and updates on the festival, head to: contactmcr.com/projects/festivals/contacting-the-world

Thank you for your support and wish me luck!
