Building a Creative, Safe Community in Wolverhampton & Across the West Midlands ✨
Welcome to The GBL Project CIC—where we’re on a mission to transform Wolverhampton and the West Midlands through creativity, opportunity, and community support. Our goal is simple but impactful: to give local artists, musicians, performers, and creatives the platforms, resources, and guidance they need to thrive on a global scale. ✨
How It All Started
The GBL Project CIC began with a vision: to empower the incredible talent within our community and address the challenges they face in building sustainable careers. From creating artistic opportunities to tackling serious social issues, our work spans various impactful initiatives designed to uplift, connect, and protect our community.
Our Initiatives
Behind The Creative: A showcase platform where artists can perform, receive feedback, earn PRS royalties, and add to their creative portfolios.
CTRL-ALT-DELETE (Resetting the Road/Streets): This unique initiative tackles knife crime and aims to divert young people away from negative influences by engaging them in creative pursuits.
No Postcode (NPC) Performances: This initiative offers artists free performance opportunities and professionally filmed music videos, helping them build a portfolio.
"Orange Chips" Podcast/Interview Platform: Through on-camera interviews, artists can share their stories and build their media portfolio.
Why We Need Your Support
To keep these programs running and to continue expanding, we’re asking for community support. While we apply for government funding, your donations enable us to maintain essential resources, secure venues, and offer free opportunities that directly benefit our creatives. Every contribution makes a tangible difference, helping us build a safer, more empowered community.
Your Impact
By donating, you’re supporting:
- Free events like Behind The Creative that bring diverse audiences together and showcase local talent.
- Ctrl-Alt-Delete, an initiative focused on steering young people away from harmful activities and into positive, creative pursuits.
- NPC Performances videos and the Orange Chips interview platform, giving artists professional content to enhance their portfolios.
- Essential operational costs like studio time, equipment, and resources that allow us to run these programs consistently.
If there’s a specific initiative you’re passionate about, simply add a note in the comments to direct your donation! Whether you support creative growth, community safety, or opportunities for youth, we’ll ensure every penny goes toward making a difference where it’s needed most.
