Proteus Theatre Company

Winnall Rock School – Making Music, Changing Lives. Founded in 2004, we are a charity based at Unit 12 in Winchester for young people of all abilities to access exciting music-making experiences. We have a strong focus on supporting mental health and personal wellbeing. Our main service is our regular free music workshops, support and challenges for 10-17 year olds from all backgrounds and abilities. We give places to anyone wanting to pursue their musical ambitions, although priority is given to those who find it difficult for financial, educational, social or emotional reasons to access commercial provision or need other support. We also run short-term projects and welcome partnerships to support access to local cultural opportunities.

Coda Music and Arts Trust is a charity based on the Dorset-Hampshire border, dedicated to making music and creativity accessible for all. We believe in the power of the arts to support wellbeing, inclusion, and personal growth through participation, learning, and therapy. We offer a wide range of opportunities-from music lessons and creative workshops to group music-making and arts therapies-designed for people of all ages and abilities. Whether it’s after-school sessions for kids or wellbeing programmes for adults, Coda provides meaningful, creative experiences for the whole community!

We’re here to be a round table for poetry where everyone is welcome. We are a poetry organisation that does all sorts of things – from hosting our much-acclaimed biennial festival in Winchester, to our popular Winchester Poetry Prize competition, to our wider work with schools and community organisations.
