Overview
This digital education charity empowers children in Hull from diverse backgrounds by unlocking their creativity and digital fluency. Their mission is to promote technological literacy for all local children, bridging the gap for those who may not have had such opportunities before.
Reel Creative is a digital training charity designed to cater for children in Hull from a multitude of backgrounds. They strongly believe that promoting technological literacy is key for all local children, regardless of their background, to help them navigate an increasingly technology-driven world and obtain the most positive outcomes possible.
By democratising access to professional-grade equipment, Reel Creative bridges the gap for those who might not have had the privilege of such opportunities in the past.
The mission of Reel Creative is to spark the innate creativity that resides within their learners. Through carefully curated courses and experiences, they aim to kindle imagination, foster self-confidence, and instil a broad spectrum of new skills that empowers local learners in an increasingly digital era.
The knowledge of the team at Reel Creative spans a wide range of digital media: from learning the art of video production and podcasting, to diving into the world of filmmaking; from practicing the skills required to create engaging animations, to mastering the concepts behind graphic design, and experimenting with AI.
All these practical, immersive experiences are delivered in a state-of-the-art professional film studio located on Clough Road in Hull.
The £2,000 awarded from the John Good Group will enable Reel Creative to purchase resources such as cameras, laptops, tablets, and essential software subscriptions, levelling the playing field for those who may not otherwise have access to these critical tools.
We are humbled that you trust us to spend your money wisely and thank you for believing in what we are trying to achieve. Sometimes it is the smallest things that mean the most – the care packs, whilst such a small thing, can be just what a young person needs to help them find meaning and help them to start valuing their lives. From the bottom of our hearts: thank you
Joanna Garvey
