Social impact is a foundation of Factory International

As a registered charity our vision is to Invent a Better Tomorrow together, driving social change through arts and culture. We do this by fulfilling four core ambitions:

  • To make art accessible to everyone
  • To transform lives through creative engagement
  • To develop the next generation of diverse talent
  • To power the future of our sector

Working together

Support from trusts and foundations is crucial in growing and developing the work we do - using art and creativity to improve wellbeing, unlock potential, talent, opportunities, create new possibilities for employment, training, and learning or a better start in life; and we're always looking for ways to become more accessible, inclusive and reflective of everyday life.

We also rely on the generous donations from trusts and foundations to help us evolve as a charity that seeks to become increasingly transformational for people.

We work alongside families, community organisations, artists and schools, inviting them into our cultural space we hope they will call home. We are also out and about in community spaces, producing performance in public spaces, being present in classrooms every week of the school year.

The landscape keeps changing for our local communities, communities of interest and the cultural sector and so our work must evolve with changing times which means there’s still more to do.

We can’t thank enough the trusts and foundations who have and continue to support us. They’ve ensured we could try, test and learn; deepen our connections with communities and artists; and keep working to make art in all its forms accessible to everyone.

If you’re a trust, foundation, grant maker or public funding body and you’re interested in what we do, then let’s talk. To get started, please contact our team on supportus@factoryinternational.org.

We're grateful to our supporters
