Zinc Outreach Services

Zinc Arts is a dynamic and forward-looking professional arts organisation, specialising in the area of disability arts and social inclusion. The company promotes long-term involvement in the arts through: Professional arts products (eg theatre performances, exhibitions, publications, etc.); Participatory arts projects; Continuing Professional Development (CPD), training and employment opportunities; Dissemination and networking initiatives. Its strategic programme of outreach and centre-based projects brings together artists, arts organisations, community groups, social care .​​

Our team of project leaders, along with the Essex Youth Service are currently working with young people in and around Ongar and Sheering to provide after school youth clubs. These clubs are a safe and inclusive space where anyone between the ages of 11-16 are welcome. Young people have the opportunity to learn new skills, hang out with their friends, take part in cooking, art and sports, and have access to one-to-one support.

Zinc also works with local schools, such as Chipping Ongar Primary School, and The Ongar Academy.

Some of our previous outreach work has included, free school holiday clubs, cooking clubs, art clubs, health and wellbeing workshops, and so much more. We have worked in conjunction with Active Essex, Sports England, The Essex Community Fund, and many other funders, helping us to reach vulnerable people across Essex.

Interested in coming to one of our Youth clubs? Contact rhianna.picking@zincarts.org.uk for more information.
