CREATIVE WELLBEING & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

At RedBobble Arts, we believe in the transformative power of creativity. As a neurodiverse, female-led theatre company, we are committed to making the arts accessible, engaging, and empowering for all—especially those who face adversity. Through our dynamic creative wellbeing programmes and community engagement initiatives, we create spaces where stories are shared, voices are amplified, and individuals are supported in their journey of self-expression, confidence, and connection.

OUR APPROACH

Creative Wellbeing for All
Our creative wellbeing workshops provide safe, nurturing environments for children, young people, and adults facing adversity. Designed to foster creativity & self-expression, resilience, and connection, our programmes use theatre and the arts as tools for healing, growth, and empowerment.

Removing Barriers to Access
We bring the arts directly to communities, ensuring that creative engagement is not confined to traditional theatre spaces. By collaborating with local organisations and partners, we tailor our programmes to meet the unique needs of each community, breaking down barriers and making participation truly inclusive.

Empowering Through Collaboration
We are passionate about fostering a culture of support and collaboration, ensuring co-production is at the heart of every project. Through initiatives like the Freedom Theatre Workshops and Female Artist Neurodiverse Network Yorkshire (FANN), we create opportunities for creative growth, self expression and changing inner narrativesl.
