Kate at the Cobholm Underpass
The ARC Artists Group was one of the lucky voluntary groups to be approved by people living in Cobholm, Southtown and Halfway House wards for a Neighbourhood Management "Your Neighbourhood, Your Decision" grant . Katarzyna Coleman, Chair of ARC, submitted a proposal to start a project to run workshops and paint a mural on the underpass in Cobholm by researching Cobholm's heritage with local residents.
£10,000 altogether was allocated for projects which will benefit local people, around £500 available per project, with all project ideas being put forward by residents and local organisations. The results of the voting were announced on the 25th March 2010 at the Edward Worledge School, Suffolk Road, an occasion that genuinely felt like a celebration of community spirit.
