Big day today. 💛

Good luck to everyone receiving their A Level results!

Whether you’re celebrating, feeling disappointed, feeling completely unsure, or a bit of everything at once remember that your results are not the whole story.

There are so many ways to build a future that feels right for you, and you don’t need to have it all figured out today.

Be kind to yourself.

A look back at last summer’s week at Paddington Trust Farm! 🐑🌱

Our young people swapped city sounds for birdsong and screen time for sunshine, with many experiencing farm life for the very first time. From feeding animals and growing food to learning more about nature.

We’re excited for this year’s Farm Diaries and look forward to sharing more special moments with you very soon!

A huge thank you to everyone at Paddington Trust Farm for continuing to welcome us so warmly every year. 💚

While we're busy looking towards our exciting expansion, we're also taking a moment to look back.

Join us on a trip down memory lane to 1997, when lottery funding helped us purchase our building and lay the foundations for everything Paddington Arts has become today.

At Paddington Arts, we see every day just how powerful the arts can be. They give young people a safe space to express themselves, discover their confidence and feel a true sense of belonging.

Across the UK, inspiring stories continue to show the impact of youth arts.

The arts do so much more than nurture creativity. They promote wellbeing, encourage self-expression, strengthen communities and open doors to new opportunities.

Let's continue to celebrate the news, organisations, artists, educators and young people who are making a difference every single day.

Throwing it back to the sunny Saturday performing at Paddington Square!

Events like these are about so much more than performing for our young people, they're about building confidence, expressing yourself, making memories and sharing the joy of the arts with the community. 💃🎭🥁

Swipe through some of our favourite moments from the day!

Since the end of last year, our building has been undergoing an exciting transformation, and while progress takes time, every day brings us one step closer to creating an even better and bigger space for our young people to learn, create and thrive.

We've captured some incredible behind-the-scenes moments along the way, and we can't wait to share more with you (including a fun time-lapse) 🎥

A huge thank you goes to everyone who has made this project possible. From our main man Steve Shaw, to our fantastic project managers, and the hardworking builders who have been on site💙

Great things aren't built overnight, but they're always worth the wait!
