Creative Outputs
Using creative, participatory storytelling methods we have developed a variety creative outputs to raise awareness, inspire change and further our campaign work.
​
We are happy to share them with you and please get in contact if you would like to arrange a bespoke screening and/or Q&A session with us!
Count Yourself Lucky
In March 2024 we had the first performance of Count Yourself Lucky, a piece co-created by Creating Ground members, guided by theatre-makers Erene Kaptani and Rachel Griffiths.
​
In 2023 we were commissioned by NHS South East London ICS to produce a report looking into the barriers migrant women face in accessing perinatal services.
​
From this research a performance was born. Thanks to
MigrationWork Weaving Bonds we created Count Yourself Lucky, exploring migrant women’s access to maternity and healthcare services based on the lived experiences of the group and those who participated in the research.
​
We have since been invited to perform Count Yourself Lucky
at South East London ICS's Local Maternity and Neonatal Services engagement event, and commissioned to film the performance to be used as a training tool.
We continue to bring Count Yourself Lucky to key stakeholders and not only have our voices heard, but start a dialogue to make real lasting change for migrant women accessing healthcare services.
Finding Strength: Our Stories of the UK Hostile Environment
This film was made as a complete collaboration between our group's members, each submitting footage and audio from their lives during lockdown and contributing creatively to the final piece over 12 weeks.
It is a celebration of the strength and resilience of this group of women as they continue on their journeys.
