What is CAEF? CAEF is an exciting new charity based on the outskirts of Hastings, in a beautiful rural location known as Rodgers Farm. It has been founded and financed by internationally famous film and theatre costume designer John Bright, whose long-held dream it has been to develop a new resource for children from socially deprived backgrounds and for those with disabilities. The Rodgers Farm site is being developed to include a small museum of childhood, with a performance space and workshop. The core display pieces will be taken from John Bright's own extensive collection of children's artefacts, puppets and toys. The small theatre will make it possible to demonstrate many of the performance possibilities of the collection. Over time Rodgers Farm will be able to house a range of exhibitions and events, with both a local and national focus. The immediate aim is to build up a network of contacts with schools and charities within the local area and look to work with them collaboratively to create a programme of fun learning experiences for a range of children with different levels of need.
