Abstract

Takeover is a 24-month programme which provided new arts and creative volunteering and skills development (pathways into work) for young people 14-24 from Mansfield and Ashfield. The programme was designed and delivered by a consortium of arts and community organisations led by Captivate (Nottinghamshire’s Local Cultural Education Partnership) with Nonsuch Studios, Inspire Learning, First Art & Inspire Youth Arts. The team involved in shaping the programme worked with a consortium of partners, led by Inspire: Culture Learning and Libraries: Inspire Learning and Inspire Youth Arts, through a strong partnership model, that supported freelancers and arts organisations within the practical delivery of work. Takeover was funded by the Volunteering Futures Fund (Department of Culture, Media and Sports (DCMS) and Arts Council England (ACE)), the project offered intensive arts and cultural training for young volunteers leading up to a celebratory Takeover festival (March 2024). NTU were commissioned as evaluation Partner for the Takeover programme. Working across the 8 diverse cohorts of young people, NTU administered pre- and post- project questionnaires, as well as for exit interviews with Artists and Teachers. Regular reflective discussions were also facilitated with the Takeover Co-ordinator – Emily Minnett and Captivate Partnership Manager – Vanessa Oxspring.
