What is Outrageous Ambition?

At Outrageous Ambition our idea is simplicity itself, we apply imagination and creativity to enterprise, to meet the real needs and aspirations to some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged people in our society. Our approach is to develop enterprise so as to get people involved in activities that have a real purpose.

                                   

Despite every individual being different we start with soft skills such as communication, team work, confidence, discipline, sense of purpose, improved self-worth. Our work aims to tackle these issues by providing a safe and welcoming environment to develop the necessary skills to increase voluntary and employment opportunities as well as contributing to their local community.

What we need and what you get

We need 5.5K towards a bespoke screen printing press, that will provide employment for marginalised and disabled people in the creative sector. Taking them out of the U.K benefits system, resulting in significant savings within the local council (Lancashire County Council).  The package will include: 

  • Screen Printing Equipment using RISO QS200 Digital Screen Maker

                                     

  • Weiss 4 Colour 4 Station Small Carousel with Side Clamps
  • WPS Mini Dryer
  • WPS Model 1 Flash Dryer
  • WPS Vacuum Board – used for Paper Printing (vacuum not included)
  • Consumables

  • Mug Sublimation kit including Ricoh Printer / Paper / Inks / Mug

The Team:

The Can Do Man

The can-do man is the man with plan, the origin of the outrageous ambition began with him. He works closely with the head of happiness and the thistle blower to make his ambition shared and possible.

Head Of Happiness

Our head of happiness has the amazing job of improving the health and well-being of the people who come to the hub. Wants to make a positive change to people’s lives through the hub, whilst making all those who come here happy.

Ninja Mouse

The ninja mouse is our digital arts developer, she is extremely adept at manipulating the mouse to create some amazing pieces of art. She helped us design a few areas of the website as well as a few other bits and pieces. Examples of her brilliant work are on our Outrageous Crew page, all the characters on that page were designed by the Mouse Ninja herself, based on the real life individuals.

Head of Smile Distribution

Our Head of Smile Distributions is also one of the inspirations for Outrageous Ambition. You may have read about her on our Outrageous Journey? The head of smile distributions uses her bubbly personality and sense of humour to makes everyone’s day in the space that little bit brighter. If it weren’t for Chloe we may all not have come together at the Outrageous Hub.

The Conductor Of Creations

The Conductor of creations is our on site budding artist with a creative mind. He has made a number of creations which will ultimately be introduced to our store once we are up and running. He has created some brilliant pieces using a wide range of media, from making 80’s retro creations from perler beads to some origami masterpieces. In fact you may recognise a couple pieces of his work as the origami swan and origami tree on our Outrageous hub page.


The Impact

The social impact of our work is measured in the health and well-being of those involved. Many disabled and disadvantaged people lack a sense of purpose, have limited opportunities and face problems such as; a lack of confidence; low aspirations; social isolation; depression and other mental health problems; limited skills and job opportunities.
