**What the charity does:** Since 1995, Citadel Arts Group has given a voice to older people. We offer them opportunities to be creative and share the fruits of their creativity with the community:  we develop and perform their plays, preserve their stories in books and dramas, bring them into contact with younger people and provide mental stimulus. Citadel delivers memory-sharing and creative projects in Leith and North Edinburgh: we have collected the stories of retired whalers and dock workers, people who worked on Leith&#x27;s SS Explorer and women living in sheltered housing. These stories inspire the plays we have performed in schools, care homes, dementia day care centres and at Leith Festival. Citadel preserves and celebrates the rich heritage of North Edinburgh. We engage those unlikely to attend conventional theatres or get involved with the arts.  Citadel also runs youth drama clubs in Leith, offers playwrights workshops to beginners and more experienced writers and creative writing classes for carers.
