Creativity Connects

Creativity has been at the heart of community-led responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, nowhere more so than in the areas taking part in Creative Civic Change.

One of the most popular ways of encouraging creativity at this time has been through hand-delivered activity packs. Creative Civic Change (CCC) areas have delivered clay, paints, pens, and more to local households, along with brilliant activities to take part in.

We have brought together some of the best examples of these CCC activities in Creativity Connects. We would love Big Local areas & beyond to share this with your communities, do the activities, and share what you come up with using #CreativeCivicChange.

You can read more about CCC communities experiences designing and developing these packs here: Keeping communities connected with creative packs
