To supply free art groups to the people's of Manch

I started B4BMCR back in 2019 as a one off Christmas fundraiser, to help Manchester's homeless community, known as "Baubles 4 Beds". The aim of Baubles 4 Beds is to connect the community of Manchester by making Christmas tree decorations and then with the help of local businesses we decorate their Christmas trees. Giving us the opportunity to help raise funds and awareness of Manchester's homeless community and the charities that support them. Whilst also giving the community that helped make them a sense of pride in their work as well a a sense of belonging within the wider community. Since 2019 we have grown to supplying free art events that run throughout the year which includes buskers 4 beds (our music event), free community art stalls held at community fun days, including Levenshulme Pride and levsquare residents association and our free art groups  within schools and community groups across the region. We also run a digital inclusion program supplying upgraded laptop's to those that need them. Our long term plans is to have a community arts hub where the people of Manchester can access free art and support from the many organisations we have connected with. So far this has been totally self funded but as we expand so does our running cost. We have recently set up as a Community Interest Company to help us raise funds to continue support the people of Greater Manchester and beyond.
