  • Covid's Silver Lining: Carbon Saving

    Adapting to life in a pandemic has not been easy in both our work and home life, with positives few and far between. As the C-change project works closely alongside arts and cultural organisations, witnessing the substantial challenges of the pandemic on the sector, it can be hard to see past the negatives at times.
