For those who have experienced homelessness, addiction, or time in prison, regaining some kind of ‘normal’ life can feel like a daunting task. Our projects help participants to develop confidence and build self-esteem; they also reintroduce the benefits of working with and trusting others. We have run our program as an OCN accredited course in Performance in partnership with St Giles Trust; and regularly run teambuilding and leadership skills workshops with Brent Homeless Users Group as part of their Supporting People initiatives.
In addition, we regularly run workshops with schools as part of Inclusion and Every Child Matters days, and have worked with Brent Young Carers project, Brent Carers, and Brent Community Friends. Drama Workhouse lead group work at Brent Youth Parliament. Our Saturday Crew include young people referred to us from both the Youth Inclusion Program, as well as referrals from Gifted and Talented coordinators from schools.
