We are a small, diverse charity with a big reach and novel approach to social change.
\nSince 1983, we have been offering grassroots support to our local community. We pride ourselves on the positive impact our learning programmes have had on people\u2019s lives. But we don\u2019t stop there. Our mission is to challenge and expose structural inequality, because we believe the UK has the potential to grow into the most socially cohesive and inclusive society in the world. This vision is already alive; Nova is a microcosm of such a society. Our team \u2013 leadership, staff, volunteers and participants \u2013 is inclusive, dynamic and open-minded, and reflects the communities we work with.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Our Visionary funders don\u2019t just donate, they now connect with our roots community on an equal platform, learning from each other. By working together, we can build a world that is better for everyone.
\nRegardless of background or status, we create opportunities for people to learn, grow and experience new perspectives. At our regular dialogue events, we share our insights and lived experiences to highlight systemic injustice and work towards a brighter future together.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][wgl_button button_text=”Learn more about NOVA” size=”l” customize=”color” text_color=”#258ecf” text_color_hover=”#ffffff” bg_color=”#ffffff” bg_color_hover=”#ffffff” border_color=”#258ecf” border_color_hover=”#ffffff” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fnovanew.org.uk%2F|target:_blank”][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][wgl_testimonials item_type=”author_left_top” values=”%5B%7B%22thumbnail%22%3A%222241%22%2C%22quote%22%3A%22Thank%20you%20so%20much%20to%20Bikeworks%20for%20the%20generous%20donation%20of%20fantastic%20new%20bikes%20for%20our%20young%20people.%20In%20financially%20challenging%20times%2C%20a%20new%20children%E2%80%99s%20bike%20is%20luxury%20that%20many%20of%20the%20families%20we%20work%20with%20could%20not%20otherwise%20afford.%20A%20bike%20is%20more%20than%20a%20plaything%2C%20promoting%20health%20and%20wellbeing%20by%20encouraging%20both%20exercise%20and%20exploration%20in%20the%20outdoors.%20The%20excitement%20on%20receiving%20a%20bike%20of%20their%20own%20demonstrates%20just%20how%20valuable%20your%20gift%20is%20to%20our%20young%20people.%20All%20of%20us%20here%20at%20Nova%20are%20very%20grateful%20for%20your%20support.%22%2C%22author_name%22%3A%22Matthew%20Barnett%22%2C%22author_status%22%3A%22%5BHead%20of%20Children%2C%20Young%20People%20and%20Families%5D%22%7D%5D”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_media_grid element_width=”12″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1758289469687-859b427a-20a4-6″ include=”2160″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”75px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
