Arc is one of the leading arts and mental health charities in the north. We’re based in Stockport and operate across Greater Manchester and beyond. Arc creates life-changing opportunities for people experiencing mental ill health to explore their creativity, connect with each other more forward with hope and independence. Arc has a 25 year track record of producing transformational arts projects which engage and include marginalised groups, promote wellbeing and recovery from mental ill-health, and reach thousands of audiences across the North West and beyond. We offer an arts for wellbeing programme to adults and young people, and a programme of workshops, event, exhibitions and training open to all. Our Centre is in the iconic Hat Works building in Stockport, with studios, a cafe gallery and retail offer.
