For nearly 50 years, Eleni has worked with communities across North-East Wales to improve wellbeing, connection and creativity through dance.

Each year, we support over 1,800 people through inclusive community classes, workshops and partnership projects, particularly reaching those who face barriers to participation.

​

Our work uses dance to:

• Improve physical and emotional well-being

• Reduce loneliness and isolation

• Build confidence and social connection

• Create welcoming, inclusive spaces for expression

• ​

As we approach our 50th anniversary, we remain committed to working with communities to ensure dance continues to make a meaningful difference, now and into the future.

​
