    Situation

    Many of our clients are severely disabled and find it difficult to participate in any meaningful form of artistic creative activity. Participation in the arts can enhance lives by building confidence, offering new ways of communication, helping to form a social network, teaching new skills and discovering and nurturing talent. There are few arts and disability organsations are able to work with the very high needs of people with severe learning and mobility difficulties.

    Solution

    With over twenty years of experience in Arts & Disability, our artists will provide multisensory arts workshops for people who have severe learning disabilties. We will run thirty weeks of workshops a year, building a different theatrical environement each week, filled with sensory and tactile props, costumes and musical instruments. We will engage with support workers, teachers, parents and other arts facilitators to provide artistic opportunities which meet the needs of the individual.
