I was privileged to record this day at the Southbank Centre for Drivers For Change near the end of their pilot journey. The charity took young social entrepreneurs from around the country to eight destinations to learn from inspiring projects, see the great diversity of the country in both its strengths and weaknesses, creating networks and ideas for positive social change.
The day included a workshop on storytelling from the marketing team at Red Bull and deep, emotional and personal reflections by the group led by former artistic director at the Southbank Centre, Jude Kelly.
Presented at parliament on July 2nd at the journey’s end.
The mural got great feedback:
“Blanche came along to an event on the finale weekend of our first ever learning journey to capture the essence of the project. Despite only joining us for one day, Blanche managed to capture the energy of the journey and gave us a fantastic visual representation of our unique experience that is not just a great memoir of the journey but is something we can use to promote our project in the future. Thanks Blanche!”
