Our Mission
No Strings works with some of the masters of the original Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock, reaching children in conflicts, disasters and poverty around
the world.
Weaving urgent messages into puppet films and puppet play, No Strings captures children’s imaginations in ways they enjoy and connect with, supporting their emotional wellbeing, and saving lives.
