  • THE VALUE of SMALL GRANTS a Review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’S Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION
    THE VALUE OF SMALL GRANTS A review by Peter Minet Trust and United St Saviour’s Charity March 2018 INTRODUCTION United St Saviour’s Charity (UStSC) and Peter Minet Trust (Peter Minet) have been awarding small grants in South London for many years. In 2017 they joined forces to commission Rocket Science to review their grants programmes to better understand the impact that they make and to help the two organisations think about how to develop them for the future. Peter Minet supports organisations in Lambeth and Southwark with grants of up to £5,000. UStSC only works in Southwark and has two grants programmes; a ‘Community Investment’ programme’ of over £5,000 for larger strategic projects and a ‘Community Engagement’ programme of small grants. Only the latter was the subject of this review which looked back at the past three years of grant-making. Measuring the impact of small grants is inherently challenging and it was never the intention to produce a full-blown evaluation. However, both organisations set out to understand whether relatively small grants were of value to the groups and charities they fund. This document summarises the main findings of the review. In many ways it is a celebration of the two programmes and the difference that they make. 2 INVESTMENT OVER THREE YEARS COMBINED United St Saviour’s Charity 321 206 GRANTS AWARDED GRANTS £440,366 INVESTED 149 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED £853,873 TOTAL INVESTMENT Peter Minet Trust 115 GRANTS AWARDED 243 £413,507 INVESTED DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS 94 DIFFERENT ORGANISATIONS FUNDED

  • Celebrating 20 Years of the Camberwell Arts Festival
    Celebrating 20 years of the Camberwell Arts Festival CATALOGUING CAMBERWELL 1 This year, the Camberwell Arts Festival celebrated its 20th birthday. From its infancy, the festival has brought life to little known locations, enabling new, emerging and established artists to take to the streets and create a narrative about the area we live and work in. And in 2014 it was all about the number 20! From pubs to parks, cafes to crypts, the whole of Camberwell becomes the gallery and performance space, inviting residents and visitors alike to explore the area in new and unexpected ways. As Camberwell evolves, so too does the organisation: Camberwell Arts prides itself on placing partnership at its heart. This year’s festival and the catalogue showcase this: from our work with Southwark Pensioners to the inclusion of Literary Kitchen, we’re open to all – and are committed to maintaining this going forward. As we look to the next 20 years, we’ve expanded our board and are casting the net even wider during these challenging times for the arts. Planning is already underway for the 2015 Festival, which will take place from 20–28 June; what happens during that week is as much up to you as it is to us! To find out more, submit an idea or get involved visit us at: www.camberwellarts.org.uk Michael Armstrong, Chair of Camberwell Arts 2 NEIGHBOURPUD WATCH TICKETS PLEASE! Eating our way around Camberwell seemed Margaret Thatcher was wrong to knock too good to be true – and Miss Cakehead’s people who travel on buses.

  • Production Notes
    PRODUCTION NOTES A Note from the Director The seed of Small Axe was sown 11 years ago, soon after my first film, Hunger. Initially, I had conceived of it as a TV series, but as it developed, I realized these stories had to stand alone as original films yet at the same time be part of a collective. After all, Small Axe refers to an African proverb that means together we are strong. The anthology, anchored in the West Indian experience in London, is a celebration of all that that community has succeeded in achieving against the odds. To me, it is a love letter to Black resilience, triumph, hope, music, joy and love as well as to friendship and family. Oh, and let’s not forget about food too! I recall each of these stories being told to me either by my parents, my aunt, and by experiencing racial discrimination myself growing up in the 70s and 80s. These are all our stories. I feel personally touched by each and every one of them. My five senses were awoken writing with Courttia Newland and Alastair Siddons. Images, smells, textures and old customs came flooding back. All five films take place between the late 60s and mid 80s. They are just as much a comment on the present moment as they were then. Although they are about the past, they are very much concerned with the present. A commentary on where we were, where we are and where we want to go. When the Cannes Film Festival selected Mangrove and Lovers Rock earlier this year, I dedicated both to George Floyd and all the other Black people that have been murdered, seen or unseen, because of who they are in the US, UK and elsewhere.

With nerves jangling, the skydivers waited patiently in the rain for the clouds to lift before finally receiving the go-ahead to jump. After climbing to a heady height of 13,300ft, the parachutists exited the plane and reached speeds of over 120mph in free fall prior to deploying their ’chutes.

Community theatres across the country have received grants, including young people-focused Blue Elephant Theatre and Hanger Farm Arts Centre, which works with people with learning disabilities. Theatres Trust has also given grants to help reopen every type of theatre building, including the country’s last remaining Regency theatre, Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds, theatres in converted cinemas (People’s Theatre and Blackburn Empire) and former churches (Headgate Theatre and Lowestoft Players Theatre), pub theatres (Jack Studio Theatre), outdoor theatre (Rutland Open Air) and even a travelling theatre – Paines Plough. Theatres Trust Director Jon Morgan says, We are beginning to look forward to a time when theatres can reopen, welcome audiences back inside and continue to play a vital role in their communities.
