Safe Access: Fostering positive wellbeing for diverse heritage freelancers
We’re pleased to announce we’ve secured £249,295 from Heritage Innovation Fund for the third, Grow phase of Safe Access.
Over the next two years, we’ll expand and extend our work with freelancers and move towards supporting museums and heritage organisations to be safe spaces for everyone who engages with their collections and exhibitions: workforce, volunteers, partners, communities, and visitors. In the Grow phase Safe Access will:
- Build a community of museums and heritage organisations embedding wellbeing-focused and trauma-informed approaches in all aspects of their working practices and programming.
- Develop a framework for museums to centre understanding and compassion for lived experience, creating safe spaces for marginalised communities and individuals.
We’ll be looking to work with museums and heritage organisations to test and embed the tools created. If you would like to register your interest or discuss the potential opportunity for your organisation to be involved in please email Jenna at [email protected]
