LEARNING THROUGH CREATIVITY

We Are Creativity Works Preston

Truly Your Local Charity

CWP was founded in 2014 to provide work-based learning opportunities to people in the Preston area. Through our learning programmes, we empower people to develop skills that will help them find their place in the world of work. Our opportunities are aimed at people who need or prefer to learn in a different way to the traditional education system that is predominantly academically based to one that is project-oriented and provides individualistic tuition.

13-19 Education

We offer a wide variety of qualifications and programmes which are tailored to each individual student, re-engaging them into education and sparking a passion for learning. A practical work based training approach to learning ensures students have lifelong skills alongside their accredited qualification that can be taken straight into the work place and put into practice. We also offer a number of enrichment activities that are open for all students to engage in.

CWP is a lovely place. It has given Jacob independence as he gets treated like an adult. The relationship between staff and students at CWP is also outstanding as there are no sort of barriers.

Ms DelaneyJacob's Mum

I love it at CWP, it's a safe place where I can figure out what I'm doing whilst also enjoying art and photography. I also got many chances to learn new skills over a year, soon to be two. I've never settled into a place so quickly.
