About Create Paisley

We’re an arts charity working with disadvantaged young people in Renfrewshire since 2009, using creativity to change lives and support good mental health.

We offer creative activities – art, crafts, writing, design – that allow young people to explore and celebrate who they are and what they’re passionate about.

We create safe, welcoming spaces. Our work is playful, inspiring and hopeful.
