21Common are an arts charity based in Glasgow who use Social Practice (a collaborative, community-focused art form) to ignite social change. We create spectacular experiences that consistently challenge the traditional ideas of who can be an artist by amplifying those most under-represented in that role. In the past 7 years we have produced 9 new dance works for public presentation. 27 school and community collaborations and 21 national and international touring engagements. Accessibility is central to our work, recognising intersectionality / complexity. We create exceptional art outside of the accepted, giving those with the least power an agency within the artistic process

Objectives: The organisation's purposes are: 4:1 To advance the education of the general public through the provision of innovative and inclusive arts activities and events 4.2 To use arts activity such as workshops and schools projects to advance citizenship and community cohesion 4.3 To advance arts, heritage and culture by providing theatre of exceptional quality and imagination 4.4 To provide activities that advance opportunities for marginalised communities, such as the elderly, disabled people or disenfranchised young people to take part in the arts
