    SEED SEDGEMOOR 

    We aim to enable more people in our region to actively engage in the creative arts, particularly those who don't usually do so. We seek to remove barriers to participation, offer opportunities for people to engage with the arts, and for the arts to become a part of their everyday life. We believe everyone is creative and can benefit from opportunities to explore and develop their creativity.
