Looking Forward

Looking Forward is for girls aged 11-16 (years 7-11) facing a range of challenges in their lives.

If appropriate for the groups, we provide opportunities to share work with their families and friends at the end of each term.

Looking Forward 11-16: Tuesdays 5 – 6.30pm during term time.

Acceptance on to this project is by referral only. Referrals can be made by a professional that works with the young person – such as a teacher or social worker – or by a young person’s parent/carer. It is helpful for participants to have an interest in drama, but no previous experience is required.
