-WARP (Wales Artists Resource Programme) - referred to Spike Associates and CAMP in Plymouth: WARP is a brilliant Wales wide example 

-CAMP is not associated with a site, it is a completely independent organisation run by its membership. 

-This is very different from the usual model which is associated with a venue (Spike Assocs, Lux Assocs, PAC Home, WARP) 

-CAMP came out of PAC Home when PAC (Plymouth Arts Centre) closed down in 2018
