Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking event exploring how creativity can support the wellbeing, resilience and engagement of children and young people.
Across education, health, local government and the voluntary sector, we are seeing increasing challenges linked to wellbeing, attendance, anxiety and belonging. At the same time, there is growing recognition of the valuable role that creative approaches can play in helping children and young people connect, express themselves and thrive.
This interactive summit will bring together school leaders, voluntary and community sector organisations, local authority colleagues, health professionals and those working directly with children and young people to explore practical, evidence-informed solutions
