| THE
ART ORGANISATION - A working
template for the Future!
With a successful portfolio proving the possibility, TAO now recognise the potential, and need, for further projects, helping resolve dreliction, providing opportunity, serving education, and the arts, assisting creatives and benefiting many communities in numerous city and countryside environments, and are working toward this new reality. However, if this is to be 'The Big Society' we should not have to do it alone. Input is required from all level of Society. At the top, the new coalition government should recognise the needs of volunteer groups working from the bottom up and open up an accessible line of communication. For this element of social enterprise, dealing with urban regeneration, supporting community issues and pioneering a solution, we need an involvement, support and communication, from local business, local authority, national companies dealing with utilities, service providers, the deposit of waste, recycling, unwanted materials, fire, health and safety issue, volunteering. We follow a basic business structure. We make a little money, we spend a little money. What we make we reinvest for the benefit of the community. We do not require grants and funding because the business structure is sound. What it requires is help and understanding for the opening months of development, a period when we are beginning to raise our incomes and include the community. It is in this period we appeal for help and the chance to discuss our needs. We all need to work together, to recognise the problems in Society, in our neighbourhood, and explore these potential solutions if this Big Society is ever to stand a chance.
