Secure three weekly sessions for a year, ensuring no one goes more than a few days without connection, community, and creative express

Building Connection Through Dance, Art, and Community

We’re a group of passionate individuals dedicated to creating spaces where no one feels alone, unheard, or undervalued. Through dance, art, and connection, we’ve witnessed the incredible impact that community-focused activities can have on people’s lives.

Who We Are

We’re the team behind IMPACD CIC, a small local organisation committed to reducing isolation and fostering well-being. Like many grassroots groups, we work tirelessly to address the needs of our community—often without recognition or support from local government. But we know the transformative power of what we do, and we’re determined to keep making a difference.

What We’re Doing

This Good Fri Day, we’re taking on a 30-hour Danceathon to raise funds to secure three free weekly sessions for the following year. These sessions will provide:

  • A Warm, Safe Space: A welcoming environment where people can meet, relax, and feel at home.
  • Creative Expression: Dance, art, and drumming activities that help people connect, express themselves, and feel valued.
  • Community Connection: Opportunities for individuals to build relationships, find support, and feel part of something bigger.

Small organisations like ours make a huge impact, delivering vital services and creating meaningful change in ways that larger systems often overlook. With your help, we can continue this vital work and reach even more people.

How We’ll Use the Funds

Every pound raised will go directly toward:

  • Running three weekly sessions (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) for an entire year.
  • Providing materials for art, dance, and drumming activities.
  • Supporting local artists and leaders who bring these sessions to life.
  • Offering refreshments and a warm, safe space where everyone feels welcome.

These sessions will ensure that no one in our community goes more than a few days without seeing friendly faces, connecting with others, and having a space to express themselves.

Our Vision

We believe in the power of community. Our vision is a future where connection replaces loneliness and everyone feels heard, valued, and supported. Small organisations like ours are the backbone of this work, often stepping in where larger systems fall short. Together, we can make a lasting impact—one step, one beat, and one dance at a time.

Join us for 30 hours of dancing, fun, and purpose this Valentine’s Day. Let’s show the world what a small organisation with a big heart can do!
