Jon Bell uses our space for his photography and clothing business @jonbellphotography @ragamuffinretro The Crosby Collective provide him a space to work and edit his photos and videos. He uses the Workshop as a studio space for his photos and videos and rents a pod in our Studio where he keeps the Ragamuffin Retro stock to sell. Jon has been a part of many of the projects the Crosby Collective do, his very first was the School for Start-ups which helped him with his small businesses.
Jon would like to be able to have his photography and videography business soar. He wants to get his own Studio space for his photography business and expand his clientele. He’d like to travel all over the country and others as well for the amazing photo opportunities the world has to offer.
The Collective has really made a difference in Jon’s life. It has given him a space to meet and network with other businesses and like-minded individuals and with the School for Start-Ups it really helped him get his business going, giving him the training and support he has needed to run his own successful business.
If you would like to know how we can help you and your business like we helped Jon please just send us a message.

In the future Tracy would like to continue her work within the community and have some more time to spend with the Beavers group she works with.

We have spent a lot of time over the past few month getting better at doing coffee . We are not there yet but we are enjoying the journey. @_good.coffee_
This was all made possible by funding from the European Structural and Investment Funds.
Liz is a volunteer here at the Crosby Collective. She helps with the general running of the Collective. She helps in the kitchen, makes sure the plants are watered and thriving, delivers coffee for Good Coffee when the barista is busy with orders. Liz is always around to help with whatever is needed but stays even later some nights to help with Red Tent nights.
Liz would like to pass the Food Hygiene course she is currently doing to do more in the Kitchen. She would also like to learn how to use the coffee machine.Liz would also like to start up a Coffee Morning at the Collective every Monday.
Volunteering at the Crosby Collective has made Liz much happier in herself and less stressed about things going on in her life. It has given her a place with a sense of community to go to during the day and she enjoys coming down just to be in the building. It has also given her more skills with some members teaching Liz how to make bracelets which she sells during the monthly market.

With the help of the Crosby Collective James has seen his confidence rise as he takes charge of multiple projects the space has to offer. He has expanded his skill set with computers and the business side of the Collective: taking minutes in meetings, keeping track of who uses the space and keeping track of members records.
The space has helped him meet people in the fields he is interested in, @jonbellphotography and @callumlwale , that have taken him under their wing and are mentoring him in their respected fields, Photography and Film technology.

Aimee is the amazing barista here at the Crosby Collective. She runs our coffee shop, Good Coffee, and is the first face people see when entering the building. She is always friendly and welcoming to those coming in for the first time or returning for their tenth. Aimee is also the person who keeps the profits for Good Coffee and The Pantry safe as well as the person who does general cleaning whilst the building is open. With the Crosby Collective, Aimee has been trained in how to use the coffee machine and make many wonderful and different types of coffee.
Aimee would like to open her own independent coffee shop in the future. Making a more friendly and intimate environment that can hold its own against the chain stores like Starbucks and Costa.
With the help of the Crosby Collective Aimee has received training on the coffee machine that has broadened her horizons when it comes to looking for work and has helped give her more time to pursue her artwork. It has also helped her build up her confidence being the front woman of the building.
This opportunity was made possible by funding secured from the European Structural and Investment Funds

For many that have been following us over the past few years you might have noticed that 2021 wasn’t a year that we did much on instagram other than the odd update video and post . 2022 is going to be a lot different because our focus is not about doing a whole lot of new stuff but rather making sure that each project we do is quality and people are valued along the way. We are excited to have an amazing ‘documentary making’ couple @thisexpansiveadventure with us next week to help us better tell the stories we have happening inside the building - the video will be going on their new streaming platform. If you are looking for a new space to call home as Plan B comes to an end - get in touch and see how we can support you in 2022 :)

A SPACE WITH COMMUNITY AT IT'S CORE
We have been pioneering sustainable, holistic community development for 35 years. We work in many communities affected by inequality that impacts all areas of life.
So we work in a joined-up way across our communities to create change – economically, socially, physically, spiritually; in education, housing, justice, health, youth, and family support; with people of all ages and in all situations.
We believe that things can change.
Where systems leave communities disadvantaged we’re bold about pioneering alternatives and trying new things. We’re not satisfied with the status quo where it keeps people trapped in poverty, or constantly at risk of exclusion.
Our ethos is based upon:
- A passion to include everyone
- A desire to treat everyone equally, respecting differences
- A commitment to healthy and open relationships
- A deep sense of hope that things can be transformed
- A sense of perseverance to keep going
