For the past few years we have collaborated with Pedestrian and Soft Touch Arts. We have funded music and animation residencies at New College, with the aim of introducing young people living in New Parks in Years 9 to 11 to Higher Education. In previous years, the young people took part by creating original artwork, visiting the De Montfort University Campus, meeting student ambassadors and having inspiring talks from those who had more challenging journeys to university.
Dot to Dot supported Pedestrian and Soft Touch Arts with monitoring and evaluating the projects in 2021 and 2022 and you can read the reports here: 2021 Feel Good Summer Evaluation Report Final & 2022 Pedestrian Feel Good Summer Evaluation Report
