Cracked Slipper Company

The Cracked Slipper Company is a registered charity providing free weekly drama groups, workshops and events to disadvantaged young people between the age of 7 years and 25 years living in Herefordshire.

We reach out to those who may have barriers to accessing the arts because of socioeconomic reasons, those who lack confidence and marginalised groups in Herefordshire. We help young people to gain confidence, gain new skills and to feel part of the larger community. We help young people to reach their aspirations and feel confident about a brighter future. We are a very inclusive group promoting community cohesion.At The Cracked Slipper Company we promote creativity and in April we ran a Poetry competition for young people aged between 10 years and 18 years of age living in Herefordshire. The theme was “What’s it like living in Hereford.” Thanks to sponsorship from the Beefy Boys Hereford every single poem submitted will be featured in a book of Hereford Young Poets. And the winners in each category will receive a prize.
