Small Charity Big Impact Day

6/18/2021

Today is #SmallCharityBigImpactDay as part of Small Charity Week 2021 and we thought we’d take the opportunity to share some of our impact over the 12 months. The last year has been a year of pivoting, growing, creating, an abundance of adventure, learning to get comfortable with discomfort and expecting the unexpected.
Mortal Fools’ purpose is to support people to have better interpersonal relationships with one another and we do that through theatre and drama. Our work became even more important during a year when COVID forced us to physically distance from one another. 
We are so proud of our team for the ingenuity and resilience they’ve shown, and for the positive impact we’ve collectively been able to make to young people and freelance artists in Northumberland and beyond, who really needed us to be there for them. 

You can download out End Of Year Summary HERE – it’s full of some of our all important impact numbers. 

You can also experience some of the work we’ve created across the last 12 months with young people and professional artists:
When The World Is Loud – our audio theatre experience is still available to access for FREE. We’ve had over 1000 listeners so far and it is perfect for the Summer days ahead, so give it a listen. Find out more HERE. 

Melva Mapletree and the Quest for Barnabas Boggle - our online, interactive storytelling Melva game to support children’s mental health is NOW available to families, schools and community groups. Find out more HERE! 

Let Us Tell You – our new creative film project is available to watch now. This is a coming together of young people’s powerful voices on film and an invitation to step inside their thought provoking and sometimes imaginary worlds. You can watch the two films HERE and download the free resource to use with young people HERE.  

CONNECT – We’ve been delivering our professional and personal development programme and training for individuals, teams and businesses to thousands of people. You can find out more HERE.

And we’ve got so much more to come! We are ready to step into the next year, stronger, wiser and forever changed.
