Our blog explores a different question each time to see where our curiosity takes us. Written by Isla Hurst, one of our lovely dance artists, we’re currently asking:
The podcast that embarks on a transformative journey through the lives and stories of the incredible people of Calderdale.
Calder Navigation invites you to open your hearts and minds to the tapestry of everyday moments and significant events that shape our lives. Through authentic and relaxed conversations, we’ll delve into the complexities of what it means to be human, celebrating the diversity and resilience of our community.
Curious Motion is a not for profit organisation that relies on public funding and the support of our community to provide our projects. All of our activities are offered on a free or ‘pay what you can’ basis. Thank you to everyone who supports us.
