Big Jigsaw is Dancefest's access and inclusion programme, which aims to challenge, surprise and push boundaries in inclusive dance, working with disabled and non-disabled people of all ages and abilities.
An inclusive dance company for disabled and non-disabled dancers who meet at 5-7m on Wednesdays in Hereford.
We can create bespoke projects for schools and colleges inspired by different themes or curriculum-based activities. Schools can be part of local cluster sharings that Dancefest organises or become part of our larger scale performance projects.
Michele Holder is our Dance Development Team Leader (Access and Inclusion) and you can contact her about any aspect of our inclusive work.
