Trinity has successfully distributed 73 boxes of arts and crafts supplies donated by Scrapstore to children across the local community this March.

Each box contained essential crafting materials alongside recycled items, designed to spark creativity and imagination for children and families to enjoy together at home.

The majority of these creative packs reached students from the three schools participating in Trinity's Cultural Alliance Programme.

Children collected their packs during various after-school club sessions funded by Wesport, BBC Children in Need, and Bristol City Council and additional packs were given to attendees of Trinity's International Women's Day Market, which was supported by Fun Palaces.

‘The inclusion of the modelling clay was really well-received and big thank you’s were shared from the families directly, as well as from class teachers and inclusion leads. All children should be given the opportunity to get creative!’ – Sarah Franke – Primary Specialist, Trinity Community Arts
