Local disability charities work together on mosaic project
Two Harrogate based disability charities have worked together to create a mosaic that will displayed at a new training centre.
Artizan International and Harrogate Skills 4 Living (HS4L) both work to provide care and support to disabled people.
The mosaic was made by disabled artists from Artizan, a Harrogate-based charity that runs arts and crafts workshops and provides training to disabled people.
The ceramic-tile piece has been given to HS4L for it to display outside its new training centre.
HS4L bought the training centre in early April and has been using the space to run education programmes and internships for young people with learning disabilities.
Hadyn Moorby-Davies, HS4L’s chief executive said:
Mr Moorby-Davies added that the theme of the mosaic, 'Many Hands’ encompassed the charities’ ethos of “supporting each other to achieve the best possible outcomes for all.”
Artizan has become a local specialist in mosaics and in 2022 created the giant Harrogate letters displayed on the side of the Boots building in the town centre.
Liz Cluderay, Artizan’s UK director said:
