​Your support makes it possible!

We'd like to say a very big thank you to John Queripel Associates Limited for their ongoing support for Artizan International. They very kindly gave us a grant to help us equip our UK cafe project, and ongoing support for overseas too. Thank you so much JQA team!

We're also very grateful to Resurrection Bikes, a Harrogate charity based at Kairos Church that refurbish donated bikes and sell them to raise funds for people like us! They have supported our work since the very beginning, first in the UK and now in Peru. Their support makes it possible for Laura Baxendale to volunteer there full-time, where she makes a huge difference in the lives of the many differently-able people she serves. Pop down to see them if you're in need of a great bike! You can find out more about them on their website here:

We were able to move into a new office and studio in Harrogate, thanks to a tremendous amount of support from local building firm G.H.Brooks who kindly provided all the materials we needed to convert an old garage into a light, bright and insulated studio, where we store all the crafts materials and equipment for our weekly crafts sessions. We love the new space and quite literally couldn't manage without it! Thank you so much for your generous support.

The new studio space's flooring was generously donated by 'Smith's The Rink' in Harrogate, a local family firm supplying fabulous flooring, furniture and more! They even came and professionally fitted it for us. It gets a lot of hard wear, so we're extremely grateful to have such a beautiful floor!

IF is a grant-making foundation which aims to support charities and projects that are particularly focused on building community and on empowering participants to reach their potential. We're tremendously grateful to them for their generous support towards some of the core costs that we incur whilst running our UK activities. Support like this is so valuable as we can use it where it is most needed.

This site is still very new, so we have lots more links to place on this page coming soon. We're so grateful for the support of everyone who makes our work possible. Thank you!

Project Possible is a Christian charity that believes God’s plans are for transformed lives – physically, emotionally and spiritually. They partner with local organisations and churches led by local visionaries seeking transformational change in their communities. Living in their own communities, they have the vision and drive to transform lives for those in poverty but need access to resources and broader networks. We partner with them, working together to bring about change.

​They provide crucial support for some of the core running costs of our Ecuador project, which provides training and employment opportunities for people with disabilities who would otherwise be living in extreme poverty.

We're very grateful to Harrogate Borough Council UCI Bike Race Fund for supporting us with a donation of £600 towards materials for a community mosaics project to celebrate the event. The differently-able adults and children who've been involved in the project have really enjoyed creating a series of mosaics to celebrate the many positive benefits of cycling.

The Liz and Terry Bramall Foundation kindly provided a donation towards some of our UK workshops in 2020. These sessions are so valuable to the adults and children with disabilities and special needs who attend them. In 2021 they helped us to purchase some of the equipment for our UK cafe project for young adults with disabilities. We're incredibly grateful for their support.
