Enterprise
Enterprising Me is a magazine style performance that encourages young people to ‘think outside the box’ and re-evaluate the world around them with a ‘can do’ attitude. The performance explores the notion of ambitions and dreams, while challenging young people to observe themselves and recognise their own potential barriers to progression. This allows us to highlight the need for enterprise skills in all aspects of their lives and highlights strategies for developing them.

Careers
Your life is a high energy, entertaining performance that raises aspirations and passes on positive information about the many different routes into HE post 16. By using identifiable characters and fun interactive scenarios that the audience can relate to we dispel preconceptions and negative attitudes towards HE raising awareness of its accessibility for all. The performance presents the many options available to young people that they may have other wise ignored, encourages individual responsibility and challenges them to become more self aware, plan ahead and access the support they need to successfully stay in learning.

Entry to Employment
Our e2e workshops aim to motivate young people to achieve their potential, take responsibility for their future and explore relevant youth issues. Using interactive exercises and drama techniques the workshops examine potential barriers to progression including alcohol and antisocial behaviour and examine employability skills, employer expectations and good working relationships. They are an excellent way of improving communication skills as well as addressing problem solving and effective thinking.
