Arts in Development

Collaborative creative development

Every moment we experience sheds light on our deep connection
to other people and the wider world 

– it is this connection that makes our lives meaningful

When we are in development we support each other to live meaningful lives 
– lives that are creative, collaborative and connected 

We do this by walking alongside each other and building Libraries of Moments

All Arts in Development services are provided free
(donations are welcome)

Walks in Development

Sometimes all we need is someone to walk alongside us

When we walk in development
the moments we experience
inform our long-term development

Let’s  walk alongside each other
and draw creative inspiration 
from the natural world

Build a Library of Moments


Libraries of Moments
assist every aspect of our development
from the initial moment of inspiration
to ongoing programmes, publications and events

They help us value our experience
 and support each other
to create, collaborate, and connect

We all have a wealth of experience to draw on

“I recommend Arts In Development as a tool for individuals and organisations, for one-to-one and cooperative working; his holistic approach helps untangle knots and brings out strengths with great positivity”  (Tara Downs, Miniature Museum )

“David is quietly rebellious and innovative and has created a new model of creative development, based on walks.  I’d recommend diving in deep to explore his approach”  (Elspeth Penny, 2BU Productions)

Walks in development have been a source of exploration, a way to connect with other creatives and an amazing space for self discovery.  David has a unique ability to create warm and welcoming environments that provide equal measures of support and motivation”  (Grace Kress, ShelbyXStudios)
