0'There’s nothing like it [Green Man] in the world. Unusually it uses its success to help people; from developing community and sports projects, showcasing artists, training disadvantaged people, and engaging with science to supporting small Welsh businesses. The ethos of creating opportunities runs right through the heart of Green Man.’ - Iwan Rheon, Actor & Green Man Trust Ambassador
Green Man is a Welsh festival all about opportunities – from supporting emerging artists and offering real-world professional training, to getting people engaged with science and inspiring positive change in our communities.
We like to make Good Stuff happen, so the Green Man Trust was created to give these opportunities a life of their own, at the Festival and all year round.
Since 2014:
- 10,000+ people have been supported by Green Man Trust
- £1,250,000+ has been raised for our good causes
- 5,000+ emerging artists have come through arts development
- 2,000+ training & mentoring placements have been offered to young people & adults at risk
- 200+ new science engagement projects have taken off the ground
- 168 grants have been distributed to community projects
Green Man Trust has a strong track record of providing clear cultural and public benefits to the people of Wales and beyond. The charity is pivotal in developing the national arts sector but our work is not only about arts development. Through our Community, Science Engagement and Training & Development programmes, we support the well-being and resilience of our nation and fill the gaps where intervention is needed to inspire positive change, bringing communities together, tackling isolation and providing financial assistance to those most in need.
