Parks with a Heart
The Park with a Heart project brought together the Northumberland Wildlife Trust and artist Josie Brookes to deliver sessions to Kenton’s young people over a year long period, exploring the local spaces they love.
The group learned about the wildlife nearby and how to protect it by building habitats for insects and feeders, and baths for birds.
To show their learning and take action to protect the spaces they love they created posters, gifs and animations with artist Josie Brooks to capture what they had learned.
Funded by the North East Combined Authority.

#75Flames Holocaust Memorial Project

As part of a national art initiative the young people’s work was shown in London, three of the group attended the event.
