Stepping Stones Creative- multi-arts session for young people with SEND

We are an organisation for young people aged 10 to 25 years old, with additional needs. We use the creative arts in supporting our members in their personal, social and expressive development. Emphasising a relaxed, safe and enjoyable environment.

Supported by Salford CVS/NHS Commission we offer through the short break respite programme our Saturday morning sessions for young people with additional needs free of charge from the Irlam and Cadishead and Eccles area. The activities are multi- arts and delivered by individuals who have experience in SEND and the arts.

Other notes

We cater for young people with complex needs/learning difficulties.

Our programme is varied, often using different locations e.g. Whitworth Art Gallery, Salford Children's Holiday Centre, etc.

We use different spaces, introducing our young people to these spaces, through their creativity, as an audience and/or as performers.

We facilitate decision-making, empowerment and independence using the arts, with much of our work emphasising meaning and expression.
Our sessions are relaxed and fun, emphasising a stress-free environment.We believe in making connections with other groups, enabling different ways of inclusion

We offer online art sessions, for those who have difficulty in attending our face-to-face sessions.
