Sally Dyer, from the PPL team, said: “If you are interested in social action, events, working with communities, or similar areas and would like the opportunity to develop your own project, or work towards a project that is already on the move, then the Social Action Lab is where you will be given the opportunity to develop a raft of skills around creating projects which can work for the social good alongside creating fantastic, engaging, and ambitious audience or participant based experiences which utilise your passion and practice have the potential to impact globally.”
