LEAP

Brent Gets Wilder

LEAP London is a CIC that develops and delivers projects that affect local change. By working collaboratively with partners, LEAP’s projects improve the quality of life for individuals and communities, enhance creativity and increase peoples’ access to opportunities.

Funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, The Wild in Brent project provided opportunities for children who do not have access to green space at home. Together they repurposed unused areas in their schools to create wildflower meadows and edible gardens.

Using a cut-out photomontage style, our 2D animation ‘Brent Gets Wilder’ tells the story of how LEAP made this happen. It also reinforces the key learning messages for the participating schools and others who may be interested in taking part in the project.

The animation has been a huge success: it’s a featured project on the National Heritage Lottery Fund website, it was shown before Matilda at the Lexi Cinema in London over Easter 2023 and was shortlisted in the World Health Organization, Health For All Film Festival, Climate Change and Health category.
