We are pleased to share an incredible opportunity to support Leicester’s young adults through a local charity – Pedestrian’s transformative Opening Doors campaign.
Pedestrian are on a mission to provide young people in Leicester with a safe and inclusive space for creative development.
For us, sponsoring a door with Pedestrian represents more than a charitable donation. We saw this as a way to invest directly in Leicester’s grassroots creative industries, giving opportunities to young individuals who may not otherwise get opportunity or access to these sorts of facilities.
Pedestrian’s campaign tackles a critical challenge. Creative potential can often be stuck behind closed doors. Our contribution will go towards constructing a dedicated space where young creatives can develop their skills and explore innovative ideas.
Rising building material costs have pushed door prices from £200 to £500, making infrastructure development challenging. However, with the support from local fundraising and businesses, Pedestrian hopes to open 16 new doors. Supporting work like this has become more important than ever and we encourage other local businesses to contribute in whatever way they can. Each sponsored door opens up possibilities for skill development, networking, and professional growth.
By supporting Pedestrian’s initiative, we’re helping break down economic barriers that prevent talented young people from accessing professional development resources.
We’re proud to be part of this transformative project and hope others will too! If you’re interested, find more information here or get in touch.
