Recipient Org: Description Artlink Central (AC) is a leading arts agency established as a registered charity in 1988. Based in Stirling, the group operates across Central Scotland, principally in the Stirling, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire areas. AC engages professional artists to work with people who are excluded from participating in the arts due to illness, disability, mental health issues or disadvantage. The group uses music, art, literature, visual and performing arts to remove barriers that create inequality and to discover and nurture creative talent in individuals, particularly emerging disabled artists. AC offers creative support to the most vulnerable people in the community which is tailored to the individual. It offers a range of programmes including those delivered in children?s hospital wards, those for the elderly, for adults with complex and profound needs and for those in mental health and dementia settings across Forth Valley. In addition, AC has offered programmes to help women offenders develop emotional and social awareness. Partnership working is critical to what AC does and the group has close working relations with several local groups and organisations including NHS Forth Valley with whom they have a 3 year service level agreement, HMP Cornton Vale and schools across Forth Valley. AC has considerable experience in working with disadvantaged individuals in the community and has repeatedly witnessed how effective their programmes are in increasing participant?s well-being, and development of social, communication and learning skills. In the past year, the group held over 400 different cultural activities and worked with 283 individuals across all of its participatory art courses.
