Talent In Action Ltd

• Owner Director/Facilitator

  • Aug 2010 - Present

  Talent In Action links talented teachers, arts facilitators and practitioners with schools, children and young people’s services and young people who are looking for emotional, educational and behavioural support. We provide tailor-made workshops to support young people in building their self-esteem, confidence, emotional literacy and communication skills, helping them to manage difficult emotions and trauma whilst discovering their own potential through the arts. At Talent In Action we believe that emotional and behavioural difficulties stem from unresolved and traumatic experiences and relationships in a young persons’ history. Through the use of the arts we aim to support young people in accessing and working through their emotions, increasing their sense of identity and self and imbuing them with a new set of skills to interact with the world around them.
