Inclusive Youth Arts Programme
Part of Attenborough Cultural communities: funded by the Peter Sowerby Foundation.

All our workshops and performances are FREE to children and young people aged 0 – 18 years old with complex disabilities and needs from Leicester and Leicestershire, our programme takes place at weekends and during school holidays.
Our building is designed to be welcoming and accessible for a range of needs, and our staff are trained to be understanding and supportive. We have disabled parking bays and a changing places facility.
Children on our programme experience a range of disabilities that without additional support, make it difficult for them to participate in the arts, including but not limited to PMLD (Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties), Autism, ADHD (Attention Deficiency Hyperactive Disorder), Auditory, speech and visual impairments, Down’s Syndrome and Global Developmental Delay.
Our programme has been running since 2015 funded by BBC Children In Need and in August 2021 became part of the Attenborough Cultural Communities programme funded by the Peter Sowerby Foundation.
