Highlights Rural Touring Scheme is a registered charity and Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation based in Cumbria. It connects over 65 venues, an army of volunteer promoters and an ever-growing list of artists.
The Community Programmer will work with schools, libraries and community venues to plan workshops and events, sourcing and supporting professional artists to work within rural schools and communities. The role will expand their valuable participation work with children and young people, as well as managing creative workshops in community spaces for people of all ages.
Set up originally to work with isolated communities in the North Pennines, Highlights now works across Cumbria (Westmorland & Furness), County Durham and Northumberland. Across the three counties, many communities have suffered from long term economic decline, resulting in pockets of high unemployment, poor transport links, declining local services and social isolation. Their events bring people together in their local communities in a range of local venues.
They work with regional artists, as well as national and international artists to curate a vibrant programme of events. Alongside their live events programme, they work with schools and community providers across the three counties to programme a range of artist workshops.
They are one of 30 similar schemes which support professional arts in over 1,000 small, community venues throughout the UK, playing an important part in the social life and sustainability of their community and supported by the National Rural Touring Forum.

20 Stories High began its life 18 years ago as an organisation dedicated to making theatre with (and for) culturally diverse, working-class young people in many contexts and settings.
They have gone through many changes over this time, adapting and evolving to meet the needs of audiences and participants in Liverpool and nationally.
The events over the last few years have been a challenge for the wider cultural sector, and the individuals involved. They know that the pandemic has disproportionately affected many young people, people from the Global Majority, and Deaf, Disabled, and neurodivergent people, therefore having a direct impact on many of our participants, audiences, and team members.
They recognise and understand first-hand the barriers that exist as we begin to re-emerge in a changing world. Their focus is to support these individuals and groups to continue to engage with equitable creative opportunities in a way that feels safe and inclusive.
20 Stories High are now embarking on a new chapter: exploring what their role is within the theatre sector, co-creating with participants and emerging artists, as well as experienced theatre-makers. They are exploring what theatre and participatory projects look like in different spaces, pushing ourselves creatively, redefining what it means to be an activist organisation, and placing wellbeing at the heart of everything we do.
They are looking for a Communications & Campaigns Coordinator who can bring new ideas, energy and creativity to this new role – someone who shares their values, mission, ambition and is committed to working with young audiences and participants.
Communications & Campaigns Coordinator
(22.5 Hours – Part-Time 0.6 FTE)
The Communications and Campaigns Coordinator will be responsible for 20 Stories High’s day to day communications. Coordinating project campaigns and communication plans. Feeding into the overall marketing and digital strategy to ensure effective and appropriate communication across all platforms.
It is important to them that the Communications & Campaigns Coordinator shares the company’s values, and is committed to contributing to our developing practice in terms of both wellbeing, environmental responsibility and EDIA (Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Activism).
For those interested in applying they will be holding an informal group zoom meeting so you can meet the company and find out a little bit more of what they do, who they are and why they do it.
It’s also an opportunity for you to ask questions about the role or the process. This will take place: Wednesday 26 June, 5pm – 6pm.
