The charity, MovementWorks, provides evidence-based dance and movement programmes that help people of all ages and abilities improve physical and mental well being and overcome disadvantage to develop their unique potential. We are requesting funding to run 'Action for Deptford', a community based year long project directly addressing issues resulting from lack of movement opportunities affecting the physical and emotional well being of vulnerable groups and those residing in the area that face the greatest disadvantage. Grant funding will be used to deliver 2 one hour long group sessions per week serving children and vulnerable people in the community with our core methods Developmental Dance Movement and Autism Movement programmes. The most significant difference will be directly addressing the impact of the lockdowns & school closures on the physical and mental health of local people. Through our holistic movement based approach in combination with a robust social/emotional support framework we will relieve the distress and social isolation of marginalised groups and improve child development and the life chances of children who live in an area of high deprivation.
