Starlings: Inclusive Drama Sessions

About

Were running an inclusive drama session for young people at Exeter Library on SAT 29 AUG, as a trial/taster

A fun-filled and accessible session funded by the RagDoll Foundation and led by Starlings, an inclusive drama project by Troubadour Theatre. This is a taster series, with the aim of hopefully launching regular sessions in the future.

The workshop is open to children and young people with additional needs, their siblings, and others from the community.

As well as being creative and fun, the sessions help to:

* build confidence
* improve communication
* develop emotional resilience
* encourage understanding, inclusivity and connection

Sessions run from 2pm and last up to 90 mins, taking place in the Rougemont Room at Exeter Library, located on the 2nd floor and accessible via lift. Parents and carers are welcome to stay for the whole session or step out, but must remain in the building

Please book 1 ticket for each child attending, and make sure to book in advance

For any questions about access or suitability please contact us: exeter.library@librariesunlimited.org.uk
