Fourth Wall Folkestone is excited to be hosting a year-long Community Participatory Action Research project in collaboration with the University of Kent.

We will work together with people in our local communities. Exploring how the cost-of-living crisis is affecting mental health and wellbeing in Folkestone. We will run workshops, activities and exhibitions to find out what is important to the community and what could be improved in our local area. Specifically, looking at what action we could take to make change. 

Karen Pamplin Browne, Katie Lambert and Sarah Lloyd, are our Community Researchers. Their role will be to support community members to explore this topic in more detail and in creative ways. They will also receive training and mentoring to help them facilitate this project.

Sign up to our mailing list to be kept in the loop about upcoming activities. We will also share them on our social media channels.
