SUMMARY:Art of the Matter
DESCRIPTION:If family relationships are the golden thread to supporting children affected by parental imprisonment\, what role can the arts play in this?\nFor 2025 Clinks Family Network and the National Criminal Justice Arts Alliance (NCJAA) Anne Peaker Lecture are joining forces to bring you an in person event. \nClinks launched its family network in 2023 and has worked to bring the voluntary sector together to influence policy and practice. The network have highlighted the need for more funding for family work; consistent approaches to visits and the impact stigma has. This event will spotlight how organisations offer a creative approach to supporting children and families affected by the criminal justice system. It aims to bring together voluntary organisations\, art practitioners\, researchers\, and stakeholders to listen to and discuss how the arts have been used as a vital tool to support families. \nThis event will celebrate the work of the voluntary sector working to support children and families of those in the criminal justice system by creating opportunities to share learning and good practice\, network and consider future opportunities. \nThis event has been coproduced with All Things Considered Theatre who will be showcasing their fantastic performance\, ‘8 Hours There and Back’\, following the stories of Ruby\, Jake and Grace as they navigate a world that they shouldn’t be in and a system that has forgotten about them. Told through a fusion of dance\, projections\, and words ‘8 Hours There and Back’ examines how a system set up by adults is failing the children. This piece is inspired by the stories from children. Every story belongs to someone. \nAnne Peaker was a pioneer of arts for\, and by\, people in the criminal justice system. This event honours her work and legacy\, which forms the basis of the work NCJAA do today. \nFind our more and book your tickets here\n

SUMMARY:Free Writing Development Training
DESCRIPTION:Training on writing reports\, case studies\, funding applications and self-expression \nThe National Criminal Justice Arts Alliance (NCJAA) is excited to revive its writing development training programme for individuals and organisations delivering arts-based services and projects in the criminal justice system. Working in partnership with the Royal Literary Fund (RLF)\, a programme of free\, digital workshops will be held throughout 2022/23 to teach vital writing development skills for reports\, case studies\, and funding applications. \n \nCommenting on the training programme before our pilot year\, Janette Kilner\, NCJAA Manager\, said: “Through listening to our network of those who deliver creative interventions in prison\, during probation and in the community\, we know how important it is to write powerfully and persuasively to stakeholders\, funders and the wider public. Our free workshops have been designed to develop these crucial writing skills\, at zero cost to our sector\, whilst also teaching how to facilitate putting experiences and feelings into words”. \nWe are delighted to be working together with the RLF to re-invigorate the programme this year across 2023-2024. We have restructured the writing reports and case studies two-part workshops. These will now be delivered in punchier and more impactful 2.5 hour workshops. The Funding Applications workshop has been segmented into two parts according content and considering participant feedback from last year\, we can’t wait to share the learning and development space with you. \nHow to register \nRegistration is open for Workshops 1 & 2 Writing Funding Applications\, please click below for more information on each workshop\, how to register\, and eligibility criteria.\nTo maximise inclusion and attendance\, workshops are being delivered online via Zoom: \nWriting Funding Applications Part 1 \n\n\nTuesday 27 February 2024  10:00 – 12:30\n\nWriting Funding Applications Part 2\nThursday 29 February 2024  10:00 – 12:30\n\n\nWriting grant applications and funding bids is challenging and time consuming. This online training programme will guide you through the process of project planning while helping you to understand the key principles of writing applications and avoiding commonly made mistakes.

SUMMARY:‘Plants\, Prisons and Potential’ with Faye Claridge
DESCRIPTION:Join the Prisoner Learning Alliance (PLA) for an online conversation about gardening for wellbeing in prisons with Artist Faye Claridge who works at the intersection of prisons\, ecology\, archives\, and heritage. In 2021\, Faye took Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) archive material into HMP Send\, a women’s prison in Surrey. The collection documents how prisoners of war set up a horticultural society in Ruhleben internment camp in Germany during WW1. Its letters and photographs show the enormous impact that gardening had on their mental health and wellbeing. Faye’s project with the RHS – Plants\, Prisons and Potential – draws on these materials to encourage women in prison to consider the role of gardening in their own wellbeing.  \nDuring this webinar\, participants will learn more about Plants\, Prisons and Potential at HMP Send\, and about the programme it has since inspired at HMP Hewell\, supported by Novus. You’ll also consider the benefits of the arts and horticulture in prisons and consider how prison teachers of other subjects could harness them in their lessons. The webinar will begin with the screening of a short film\, co-produced by Faye and learners. This will be followed by a chaired conversation\, and then questions and comments from the audience.  \nRegister online

Free tickets are also available for community groups and those who need it\, please email sam@good-vibrations.org.uk to enquire. \nResonate Sheffield is a new community hub for Good Vibrations\, a national charity supporting people in challenging circumstances through communal music-making\, often using Indonesian ‘gamelan’ instruments. We work with some of the most marginalised people in the UK\, in prisons\, secure hospitals and in the community\, supporting them to grow in confidence\, deepen their communication and social skills\, and develop more positive self-identities. \nFind out more at www.good-vibrations.org.uk \nThis project is generously supported by Good Vibrations’ funders: Arts Council England\, the Baring Foundation and Sheffield Town Trust. \nRegister via eventbrite

SUMMARY:Clinks: Doing our stories justice
DESCRIPTION:Stories are powerful\, and stories from lived experience can be particularly effective in shining a light on why things need to change. \nBut how can we make sure stories are being heard and understood? How can we make sure our stories aren’t just resonating with our audiences\, but are also helping to change hearts and minds?   \nIn this interactive workshop\, we’ll explore how framing can play a part in how we tell stories of lived experience – whether you want to learn more about framing your own story\, or you want to better support other people to tell theirs. \nWe’ll look at ideas such as the role of context and telling a wider systemic story\, and practical tips which can be applied in a range of communications and situations to make sure we’re doing our stories justice. \nThe session will draw insights from FrameWorks UK’s latest work focused on criminal justice\, and from their research in other areas such as poverty and homelessness. \n  \nFind out more and register via the Clinks website.
