pedestrian
Pedestrian is a leading arts organisation and charity specialising in music and
arts education based in the heart of Leicester’s bustling city centre. Since
1998, we have built a strong track record of delivering high quality creative
activity that has seen us complete over 14,000 workshops. We provide education,
training and outreach projects for young people at risk, vulnerable adults and
communities in Leicester, Leicestershire and across the Midlands. Our
participants are often socially excluded, not in education, employment or
training (NEET) or experiencing disadvantage. We believe that with the right
levels of support and timely intervention everyone can achieve their goals, we
call this ‘Pioneering Potential’. We have three main areas of work: Alternative
Education Provision (AEP) Early Intervention & Outreach Progression & Training
Creativity is a key part of our lives, at Pedestrian we offer the chance for
everyone to explore this through music, dance, photography, street art, etc
regardless of who they are and where they come from. As a small charity, we rely
on public funding, donations and income from our programme to enable us to
support some of the most vulnerable people in our community. To help us continue
