Creative Outputs
Using creative, participatory storytelling methods we have developed a variety creative outputs to raise awareness, inspire change and further our campaign work.
​
We are happy to share them with you and please get in contact if you would like to arrange a bespoke screening and/or Q&A session with us!
Count Yourself Lucky is a performance co-created by Creating Ground members as a result of a research and engagement project, guided by theatre-makers Erene Kaptani and
Rachel Griffiths that explores the issues migrant women face in accessing maternity services.
Snow Inn Hotel is a short animation co-created with Year 5 and 6 students from Plumcroft Primary School to address the impact of Temporary Accommodation (TA) on children’s mental health and wellbeing, part of our #NoticeUs campaign.
Home In A Bag
Home In A Bag is a performance co-created with our Stronger Together Leaders and theatre-maker Erene Kaptani as part of our #NoticeUs campaign to improve Temporary Accommodation in Greenwich.
The performance talks about the challenges experienced by women in temporary accommodation with not being given enough notice to move and what the impacts are for themselves and their children.

Huge thanks to Trust for London, Disrupt Foundation and
University of Greenwich for supporting us to develop this piece and take it to wider audiences including key decision-makers. ​
“Beautiful performance, raising awareness on such urgent issues.”
#NoticeUs Song
Guided by Tamara Astor and Rebekka Hölzle and thanks to support from Trust for London, our Stronger Together group co-created a song to support our #NoticeUs campaign.
​
We had the opportunity to open the Citizens UK London Mayoral's Assembly in April 2024 singing it to over 2000 people, asking for change in Temporary Accommodation in London.

"Our life is a question mark
And you keep us in the dark
But we keep shining
and our voices are strong"
In this participant-led documentary, a group of migrant women overcome their feelings of isolation and powerlessness when they are trained as community organisers, using their new skills to campaign for justice.
Our Stronger Together Leaders co-created this theatre performance as part of our #NoticeUs campaign to improve temporary accommodation for migrants.
We recorded the film over Zoom and have since hosted many screenings.
This film was made as a complete collaboration between our group's members, each submitting footage and audio from their lives during lockdown and contributing creatively to the final piece over 12 weeks.
It is a celebration of the strength and resilience of this group of women as they continue on their journeys.
Lockdown saw us move all our creative activities online and so when it came to the exhibition for our My Creative Skills project we did the same!
Thanks to Anna Merryfield for guiding us into the world of virtual exhibitions!
