Some gaps are great - a space for reflection and creativity. Other gaps are just a nuisance - we feel stuck, unable to move forward.

Both gaps need minding, so that we can make best use of creative space, work out how to become "unstuck" and move forward positively.

Mind the Gap undertakes training and facilitation and research with groups and individuals through bespoke programmes, courses and coaching.

Mind the Gap clients include UK and multinational businesses, residents' groups, community-based organisations, local authorities, government agencies and departments, social landlords, voluntary and non-government organisations, research institutes, the European Union and the United Nations.
