Shift Makers offers training and development opportunities to help people make a positive shift in their lives. Our mission statement reads ‘Empowerment through creativity.’ Our vision is equally bold: ‘to create an ethical clothing label where the makers are up-skilled women from across the UK.’
We work primarily with women who have experienced challenging life events. They may have low confidence and self-belief; they may feel trapped in a situation not knowing how to get out of it. We support people to make a shift in their lives so they can become financially independent by moving into employment or self employment.
We do this by offering training and development opportunities in the following areas: Confidence building, Enterprise skills, Sewing and Dress making.
Shift Makers is a community interest company. Our Social objectives are as follows:
- To provide a space for women to engage in arts based activities as a vehicle for confidence building, self-discovery and self-empowerment.
- To provide training and development opportunities that help women take the next step in their personal development towards social inclusion and financial independence.
- To offer women an opportunity to use creativity as a tool to improve their own health and well-being and to cultivate a sense of community.
- To enable women to gain the confidence and skills to access the job market or consider self-employment
