Creative Communities CIC was established in 2010 to support residents in the Northwest, primarily with employment focussed training for disadvantaged and marginalized groups.

Creative Communities was formed as the charitable arm of Creative Training Limited, established in Liverpool in 2003. Since 2003 the Directors of Creative Training have supported thousands of people into employment in the Merseyside area through specialist intervention programmes using innovative methods.

In 2010 Creative Communities worked in partnership with Working Links and launched several community outreach programmes to support residents of Merseyside.  The following projects aimed to engage residents of Merseyside in activities designed to enhance their knowledge, skills and abilities:

Creative Craft began the project in October 2010 with a view to engaging with local residents of Liverpool in order to build confidence and motivation to learn a new skill. Several men & women worked with tutors once per week over a six week period to learn the art of craft. Two courses were held: Creative Card Making and Cutting the Cost of Christmas.

Baby Dreams was an initiative designed to support parents in the Garston area of Liverpool. Using a unique programme over a 12 week period Baby Dreams provided an opportunity for parents to learn about infant development in an innovative and fun way. Just under 60 mums/carers were supported by this outreach initiative.

The Fittest Loser was launched in October 2010 to support residents to get fit and gain confidence in achieving goals. Within this outreach activity residents were able to learn about foundational fitness and healthy eating through practical activities. They also had the opportunity to experience goal setting and weight loss through supported exercise and healthy living advice.

Fit for Life used Zumba dance to engage with residents of Knowsley, Sefton and St Helens sometimes in partnership with schools and children’s centres. Again, creating goals and building confidence and motivation were outcomes of this successful and fun outreach activity.

Dad’s on the Move was created to support those nearer to the employment market who would find extra support useful to achieve their employment goals. Creative Communities support a number of men and women working in partnership with Involve Northwest to create video CVs using The Interview Room.

In 2011 Creative Communities hosted a Future Jobs Fund project known as the Community Postal Team.  This project provided entry level vacancies for unemployed residents of Merseyside and Greater Manchester.  The aim of the Community Postal Team was to provide a communication vehicle for local businesses to communicate their service to residents of the area thereby improving the health and well being of the residents and contributing to the improvement of the local economy.  The CPT worked with local councils, NHS services, and the BBC among many other well known organisations to support delivery of their ‘message’ to the community. Many young people benefitted from this scheme, providing much needed work experience. A large proportion also gained an NVQ qualification.

“The task of putting fifty nurses and doctors through a team building day was always going to be a massive task – but Creative Training managed it brilliantly. We all went away challenged, invigorated and better equipped to work together in the stressful environment of neo-natal intensive care.”

Conflict management
Working with housing associations, government and port security services, rail companies, airlines and even rugby teams, Creative Training leads the way in this area with training that is consistently delivered to the highest possible level.

There are three broad areas (though please keep in mind that we will tailor all of courses to suit your needs):

Dealing with Aggression & Conflict: This course is for anyone who regularly or potentially faces conflict in work. It is especially aimed at people who, in the course of their work, have to deal with aggressive or threatening behaviour but is also ideal for those who work in customer service or security environments. This one or two day course can be adapted for managers and conflict trainers as well as front line staff.

Physical Intervention: This course is ideal for anyone who faces conflict as part of their job and may have to restrain, control or protect. It is perfect for anyone who is at risk of physical attack in the work place.

Anger management: This course is for anyone who struggles to control their temper or for their supervisors! In fact, this is a highly informative course for anyone who wishes to understand why anger manifests itself and how this particular emotion can be contained and managed.

What people have said:

“The ‘disruptive passenger’ training that has been delivered for us at ‘Global Air Training’ over the last five years has been consistently excellent and delivered to the highest professional standards.”

Diane Worby – Director,

Global Air Training

“The participants haven’t stopped talking about the conflict management and physical intervention sessions since we used Creative Training. From my own perspective, it was great to the men learn new skills that they can utilise in both their military and personal lives.”

Major Malcolm Hill – West Midlands Regiment,

British Army

Creative Training’s Operations Director is recognised in the UK as one of the foremost coaches in this field. His experience in translating traditional method into realistic and usable techniques, whilst recognising the imperative of ‘performance under stress’ - is first class.
