The Artwork Gallery and Café is a place where people can meet new people, create, display and sell art – or just relax with a cup of coffee.
The Café was set up by community-interest company Future Health and Social Care Association following a £25,000 grant from the Working Neighbourhoods Fund (WNF). Due to the way the project is funded the service is free to anyone satisfying the following criteria:
- Not currently in paid employment
- In receipt of Working Age Client Group benefits ( Specifically JSA, Incapacity Benefit, Lone Parent Income Support and Employment Support Allowance) and have been claiming these for 3 months or more, as this programme is focusing on the long term unemployed/ worklessness
- Resident in a super output area as stipulated by WNF.
