This scan of the Knowle News features some of our early photography workshops.

THE FIRST 20 YEARS
In late 1997 the Knowle News ran a short black and white article about a project that had begun the previous year, offering free photography training and access to a local darkroom. A group of four young people were pictured meeting a wildlife photographer, below another shot of them making a promotional film about their photography work. The article recommended that anyone interested in finding out more should contact Carolyn Hassan at her base in Knowle West Health Association. Over the next 20 years, the photography project and the group involved in it grew: first into the multimedia work of Knowle West Media Project, then the straw-bale building and activity of Knowle West Media Centre, as many know us today. Over the last 20 years we’ve seen that Knowle West and Bristol are places where the combined force of creativity, community and collaboration can make amazing things happen. We’re proud to have helped over 21,500 people, of all ages, to create, learn and take positive action in their communities. The first half of this booklet contains a selection of their many memories and achievements, while the second details the activity of our 20th year in our 2015-2016 Annual Report. Reaching our 20th birthday is a significant milestone in a journey that began in a small darkroom and resulted in an environmental media centre – a journey we couldn’t have taken without the creativity, vision and support of people across Knowle West and beyond. And the journey doesn’t stop here! We know that changing landscapes, technologies and industries can bring fresh challenges and new opportunities; as we move into 2017 we will continue to collaborate with people in Bristol and beyond to find exciting ways to make our cities and communities better for everyone.

THE next 20 years
Looking forward, we know that there are two major challenges facing us as an organisation and the people we work with, and we intend to address these through our programme of work, our partnerships, and our approach: exploring how, together, we can create the communities, places and future we want to be part of. The first challenge is of diminishing public funding with an accompanying decrease in public services, which will affect the most vulnerable in our communities. We want to ensure that everyone can participate in rethinking how services are delivered by having their voice heard and exercising their right to contribute to their city and the place they live. The second challenge is that, without us all having a better understanding of the transformation of our society through technology and a wider sharing of digital skills, we are going to see an even more divided society. To be digitally excluded in the 21st century means enormous social exclusion, so we must make sure that we increase our understanding of not only what technology can do, but how we can design it and use it to address and solve our challenges. From our 20 years of work we have learned that there are very real things we can do to support people to address these challenges, express themselves, have the confidence, skills and information they need to contribute ideas, and have real influence on our collective future. We believe that our programme will continue to provide much-needed opportunities for young people and will reverse the increasing gap between those who are currently doing well in our city and those who are not. We believe that building confidence and access to skills, supporting creative thinking and local culture, and expanding access to digital skills will support resilience and wellbeing and enable all communities to thrive.

Our plans for the future include continuing to deliver an exciting creative programme for young people which will include schools work and an informal youth programme, as well as projects supporting older young people into employment and leadership in our city. We will focus on supporting young people from the communities of South Bristol and those least represented in our cultural and creative workforce. Our programme will support them to grow in confidence and develop the skills they need, not only for the changing workplace but to be major contributors to the planning of our future cities. We will continue to develop an exceptional arts programme that remixes "cultures" and brings together leading artists, architects, urban designers and housing innovators - but, above all, we will provide access for many more people to enjoy and contribute to arts and culture in our city.

KWMC20 STORIES
Making a difference "Being involved in something so important and critical to the build of the Media Centre gave me a sense of purpose and belonging. It was a safe environment, free from judgement and I was able to grow physically and mentally. I strongly believe that KWMC helped to become who I am now, during those core years of my adolescence. It helped me mould my career, create opportunities and open doors. There has always been a helping hand from KWMC and I am eternally grateful for the time invested in me and my community."
êDavina Froom, member of 2007 Archimedia building project
‘Topping Out’ the new strawbale Media Centre in October 2007, when the highest point of the building was completed.
[KWMC has] given me more knowledge of what technology is about and not to be frightened of technology. I wouldn’t have had a computer if it wasn’t for the Media Centre." êKarron Chaplin, local resident and trustee

"At the time we didn’t think it was going to take off because it was around media, because years ago that wasn’t, for some people, an activity that they would normally have done. The impact for the community has been great. I just think [KWMC] has brought so much technology for the youngsters. It’s given the youngsters of this estate skills. It’s great looking back on some of those old photographs of the carnival and the estate: of how much the estate has actually changed over the years." êCarol Casey, Knowle West Health Association, collaborator in the 1996 photography project
Young people dressed in handmade Knowle West Media Project t-shirts take part in the annual Knowle West summer carnival.
"There are key words that, for me, embody my experiences and memories of KWMC. One is ‘opportunity’. Being a rookie video maker, fresh out of university, chances to initiate and develop your professional skills and expertise are hard to come by, but the opportunities to develop professionally with KWMC kept coming: camera work, editing, producing, directing and then I started to help young people there to learn the skills I had developed, by facilitating youth media projects. I have, in many ways, come ‘full circle’. I now teach on the degree course which succeeded the one I completed 14 years ago. I am teaching a new generation of media practitioners and producers (some of whom will hopefully work in community media) and I still have a tangible connection to KWMC because it’s one of those special places that never leaves you or you it. Knowle West Media Centre has been a positive touchstone in my life, and I have seen it be so for countless others." êEmma Agusita, media educator and creative practitioner

"KWMC has made a huge difference in my life. Not only was this the first time I was able to work within my studied field of media, I was also able to gain knowledge from graphic designers, artists, film editors and directors, creative tech technicians, communications officers, and other young people with bright ideas and passionate views [...] Although I was only at the centre for 10 weeks, it took me about 10 minutes to feel right at home!" êIman Abu Saleh, communications intern on the Change Creators programme, 2015-16
The Change Creators group with Mara Balestrini of Ideas for Change during their inspiring visit to Barcelona.
"I first came to Knowle West Media Centre in February 2016 for my Change Creators interview. While on the Change Creators Programme... my confidence regarding talking to large groups of people greatly increased. KWMC has made a massive difference to me through their support in lending me camera equipment for my film projects and letting me use their editing suite. [The] film kit cupboard is a filmmaker’s heaven." êJay Carter Coles, Change Creator 2015-16 Artists’ experiences "KWMC has been an innovator in the city for green neighbourhoods and sustainable buildings, and it has become a hub for creativity and innovation in Bristol. If I want to know about new developments in the arts and media, or if I need inspiration, I go to a talk, workshop or exhibition at KWMC!" êAnnie Beardsley, artist

Circus artists Tit for Tat perform on the streets of Hengrove in the Kitchen Circus project.
"I’ve never worked with a venue that takes themselves to people so much and the Kitchen Circus was a perfect example of that [...] an idea that ‘we want to take performance to people, rather than expecting people to come to the performance’ [...] I just constantly want other people to go there... it feels like people just haven’t experienced participatory arts and technology until they’ve been to Knowle West." êDom Breadmore, artist
"I was involved in the 3e Houses project, a collaboration between KWMC, Toshiba Research Labs (TRL) and Bristol City Council. The project was investigating how IT could improve householders’ awareness of their energy consumption [...] Public art is often neutralised by commissioners who are worried about causing offence. As a result, the work can be safe and unchallenging: the fear of offence outweighing the desire to question. [KWMC] was great to work for and [Carolyn] fully supported experimentation, trying new things, new ways of expressing ideas, new ways of asking questions [...] How often do you get a community centre contributing to the technical research of a laboratory like TRL? We developed a really innovative interface and tested it in local households, which was an amazing achievement." êDane Watkins, artist
11
"[KWMC is] a really good example of really high quality work in a local community, that’s both embedded in that community but also has that real, far-reaching vision and impact. [KWMC is] about looking out and getting artists in and being prepared to always think ahead and be ahead of the game, and look at the context of people’s lives and doing things that aren’t separate to the context of people’s lives." êRuth Hecht, grant manager for the 1996 photography project
Memorable moments "I always said that on the job learning was probably the best experience for me – and I learned how to do graphic design at that time [...] The work experience was invaluable. [Also] running up and down the corridor dressed as a bumblebee one day!" êTanya Hazell, former trainee "George Gallop and his exhibition [...] I enjoy looking back at the past, remembering all the celebrities in the area and their stories." êBob Fisher, local resident and trustee

"Sitting in a meeting room in London with a view of St. Paul’s Cathedral talking about KWMC and its work to a group of people, who were all looking to learn from what was being carried out in Knowle West. I had the feeling that our work was being recognised and regarded at a national level - and what an impact we were having on other communities and people in the UK." êEmily Stokes, former Environmental Media Worker "A bath full of water crashing through the roof in the old William Budd Centre - what more proof did we need that the building was falling apart? Early sessions of the Archimedia Core Group when we said that young people would make all the decisions - to a sea of disbelief! Being told we would never get the money [for the new building and] celebrating when we did get final approval from the City Council." êMiles Ford, Project Manager of Archimedia, 2004-2008
Leinster House – the former William Budd Health Centre and first home of Knowle West Media Project.
"I still have the folder of all the magazines we made. We went out to local events and I did interviews and wrote articles about it [...] We were in The Guardian. I was in the picture, the headline said, ‘How the Westers won’, and I felt a real sense of achievement to be in a national paper recognising the work we were doing." êLevi Hodge, original member of the Mouth of the South young journalists group
