Highly Sprung Performance joins Coventry VCSE Alliance

*Welcome to our new VCSE Alliance member!!*

Coventry-based physical theatre company Highly Sprung Performance work with children and young people through workshops and touring performances.

"We know that stories can change the world, and we use stories to evoke change. To demonstrate the power of the human spirit. We inspire young people to learn through fun, motivation and engagement which feels important and relevant – especially as it is inspired and often designed by them. Spoken text is limited, to enable the body to tell the story and our audience’s to listen. We celebrate and make space for the physicality of each person, knowing they bring with them their own thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. We are not afraid to work with young people to explore important questions. Working together to make the complicated accessible, through story-telling and movement."

Introducing... The Betty Innis Foundation

| Coventry VCSE Alliance

*Welcome to our new VCSE Alliance member!* Betty Innis was a driving force for a lot of community change in Coventry, especially Willenhall. She worked on behalf of her community making sure all residents had what was needed, teaching people how to cook, how to grow fruit and vegetables, how to be sustainable and stretch money as far as it could possibly go. Betty worked with so many individuals trying to turn their life around and find their feet, and after her death in 2019, her family and the community continued her legacy with The Betty Innis Foundation. The Foundation has a Charity shop in the heart of Willenhall, selling donated items at low prices and also provides a food bank. The Betty Ennis Support System provides a mechanism for those with no budget to apply for goods, services or advice in times of need. Find The Betty Innis Foundation in our Community Directory for more information.
