Embassy for Reimagining Rotherham at Grimm & Co

Our friends at Rotherham-based Grimm & Co usually spend their days supporting young people aged 7 to 18 with their confidence and skills around creativity and writing. Recently, however, they have embarked on a new journey with their young people: reimagining their own town!

Thirty young people started a movement to write a new manifesto for Rotherham's cultural and educational plan. The strategic planners, councilors and officers alike, have used this manifesto as a blueprint to inform the master plan for the town, and are creating something very special with our young people as ambassadors. Consultation by the young people—and for young people—continues, and this is truly informing the town's planning. It's very exciting.

Stay tuned to see how these young people influence Rotherham and keep up with news coming out of Grimm & Co by visiting their website here.
