We recently published our first Impact Report, which you can read here.
“Working with Janet was a dream. Her assessment was edifying, encouraging and affirming. The advice given for how my show could improve covered a broad spectrum from the practical physical considerations to the narrative. STAF was suggested to me by a friend and I will be doing the same whenever I get the chance.”
- Keisha Thompson, FRSA
”STAF has been a vital part of Faggamuffin Bloc Party’s journey since 2021, and I can honestly say that our partnership has been a game-changer. From helping us shape our artistic vision to guiding us through the practical side of planning and growth, STAF has been there every step of the way. Without their support, we simply wouldn’t have been able to put on as many events, in the scale that we have.”
- Gin Wilson, Faggamuffun Bloc Party
“Something To Aim For (STAF) has been an incredible source of support as I navigate the UK’s music industry and begin planning projects from scratch. The mentorship has felt more like a partnership—offering guidance, assurance, and the friendship of someone who truly understands the arts. This relationship has not only helped me feel more confident in making decisions but also inspired me to take bold steps in launching my career. I look forward to continuing this invaluable connection as I organise activities and expand my experience across the UK in the coming year."
– Anson Tang, Pianist
“Since 2019, Something To Aim For (STAF) has been a vital partner in strengthening HighRise’s infrastructure and vision. Their artist-led consultancy model was a cornerstone of our successful application to Arts Council England's National Portfolio, marking a transformative milestone for our organisation. STAF’s unwavering commitment to fostering genuine participation by diverse, artist-led organisations like ours is driving real change in the cultural sector. Their work is not just about capacity building; it’s about empowering voices and shaping a more inclusive, vibrant cultural landscape."
