What benefit flows from this purpose? The direct benefit which flows from this purpose is: • increased opportunities to explore culture and identity; • increased education and skills
for participants; • reduction in social isolation; • improved levels of self-confidence and self-esteem; • improved community life through involvement in enriching arts events Can you demonstrate this?

... [more] [less]What your organisation does
The City Chapter exists to promote the spoken and written word and over the years we have grown, both in ability and experience, to deliver activities relevant to this promotion. The City Chapter has provided similar events in the local area to ensure that local people may celebrate annual events such as World Book Day and National Poetry Day in
their home area, rather than having to travel elsewhere. These events will be advertised through existing media contacts and the use of the City Chapter’s database and website. Where appropriate, promotional methods from the John Hewitt Society will be exploited.
