We are absolutely delighted that we have been commissioned by People’s Parkfield to set up Torbay’s first Imagination Station at Parkfield!
Jo Morrell from Imagine This has written a great post to highlight what it’s all about:
This is a project that has grown directly from conversations with partners in our Environment Impact Group and young people across Torbay about climate change, the environment and the future they want to see for the Bay. The Imagination Station will be a welcoming space where young people can come together to explore climate action, green skills and environmental projects in practical and inspiring ways. They will be empowered to use their creativity and imagination to think about the environment in ways that decrease, not increase, anxiety. Based at People’s Parkfield’s, it will combine hands-on activities, outdoor learning, environmental action, storytelling, peer leadership and opportunities to connect with local organisations and future green pathways.
Importantly, this won’t be a project designed for young people — it will be shaped with them.
We are delighted to be joined in the project team by Ivy Hodgson-Hunt who was one of the initial drivers of the idea, and Rachel Geary.
We are currently putting together a plan with partners and we will share more information about the programme very very soon!
