Where your money will go
Empowering children and young people.
45% of children and young people live in poverty, and we know that children living in poverty are more likely to feel a sense of failure, feel unsafe and feel hopeless about their future. (East Brighton Neighbourhood Action Plan). With your support, we will offer a programme of creative educational workshops and events focusing on local biodiversity, marine conservation and climate change.
- We will hold our first children’s art exhibition, open to all young residents across Brighton & Hove
- We will offer 50% of the spaces in our half term workshops on the Barge free to children and young people from low income families in East Brighton
- We will continue to dedicate support to our local Youth Strike 4 Climate group and other young people responding to the climate emergency, providing space for reflection, planning, networking, and workshops.
ONCA Barge community mornings
Every Friday, we will provide a warm and inclusive space on the ONCA Barge for people experiencing social isolation to come together over cups of tea to meet their neighbours and our friendly staff and volunteers. Your money will help pay for refreshments, comfortable furniture and resources for environmental learning including books, art materials and board games. With your support we can offer these sessions for free.
Addressing inequalities in the arts
Throughout the year, ONCA hosts residencies for artists who want to research and develop work in response to environmental and social challenges. In 2020 we want to offer two residencies specifically to artists who face barriers to involvement and employment in the arts, such as people of colour, the LGBTQ+ community, people with disabilities and people from working-class backgrounds.
Contributing towards our core costs
We tirelessly work to fundraise to meet our overhead costs. Your support will make a big difference in helping towards staff development, volunteer recruitment and organisational growth. With your help we can continue our work.
