10 Years of MMA: Co creating a MMA Birthday Party with members, celebrating 10 years of the project. October 2023.
Social prescribing and other referrals consistent. It is a fine balance between welcoming more members, with different support needs, and having a consistent number of volunteers to support the sessions and ensure everyone has a brilliant experience.
Volunteers: It is a challenge not having the volunteer coordinator support/ capacity in order to recruit, retain and develop volunteers' skills. Want to be able to focus on them develop ideas with members and support the seeds of smaller scale projects.
Knitting Graffiti 3 members are leading a knitting project, covering the OT chairs, providing extra comfort and colour! They are sharing crochet and knitting with others. .
Meet Me at the Movies: Film screenings and interactive afternoons on a Tuesday, welcoming members who can't attend regularly. (Moved to once a month whilst funding is pending).

Company-wide Artistic projects:
developing ground up/ community led artistic direction co-produced by our members
- Travel Agency (including themes of climate change and slow travel) is a large scale Theatre piece with GA and Hannah James and Lee Phillips. GA and Hannah are joining zooms with Ilme in Oulu, influencing the foundation stage. Travel Agency may permeate all our programmes. Artistic events and outputs within this theme will occur throughout the next three years culminating in 5 GA members, Entelechy Artists, and Hannah and Lee traveling to Oulu to perform their work in 2026.
- AJC to search for new Art Gallery residency. SDDS have shown an interest. Flier has been created to send out to prospective galleries and dance spaces.
- AJ Album. This idea has been driven by Entelechy's differently abled musicians including AJC member Sebastian Gilgori. Could be a potential collaboration with Heart n Soul.
- 21st Century Tea Dances. Next one will take place in late Autumn
- Hannah James curating and devising new work for Entelechy.
- Residents at Tower Bridge would like Entelechy to produce a new project with them based on making proper cups of tea (tea tasting) and coffee with ground beans and barista's, sharing story's and continuing making films.
Artistic projects needing to happen:**
- Individual, 1 to 1 and small group work as community owned initiative such as Red Car. Within the Entelechy community there are many talented and prolific visual artists, poets, dancers, cooks, knitters, whose work could fill galleries or publish books. Promoting and supporting the potential of our individual artists is inherently community led and can have a massive impact on many.
- Reignite exchange with Saitama Theatre Japan. Could we weave them into Travel Agency?
- Re-ignite Right to Roam and Wilderness Tales creating a mixed group from across our programmes to investigate nature, the senses, within the city
Artist Network led projects. co-produced by our associate artists
- Kit Green: Home Touring and What will Survive of US in collaboration with St Christophers Hospice.
- Cai Tomos: Cain Elders and Ambient Jam Wales in collaboration with Galleri.
- Chloe Bradwell keen to develop care home residents working with film and is researching funding for it.

The ice cream van.When we can no longer come to the group. The Ice cream van was originally proposed by Creative Producer and now Director of the Copplestone centre, Julia Honess, to continue working with GA elders when they became home bound. A touring ice cream van delivering creative collaboration in the streets where they live..
Researching a new theatre space for GA to be in residency and so more visible within local community and arts world.
