Okay, so Pedestrian wants to help young artists. A Leicester bank could become their creative hub. They need money to make this happen, about £50,000.

This money will transform a building into a cool place. The building used to be a bank, and it is across from Leicester’s Town Hall. It will have a recording studio, workshops, and a gallery.

Pedestrian helps young folks up to age 25, with many coming from tough backgrounds. Right now, they use the building’s upper floors; they got the ground floor and will fix it up first.

The CEO says art changes lives, and the new center will offer hope and help. Young people can share ideas and feel confident, allowing them to chase their dreams there.

The hub aims to be more than just a building; it should belong to Leicester. It’s a creative home for everyone, and they want everyone to help build it. This helps Leicester’s youth long term.

Pedestrian started a JustGiving page, and they are holding events to raise funds. One is a Trivia & Tunes Quiz at Bistro Live, held on March 27th at 7 pm.
