Music, Art and Media Opportunities for Young People Living in the Looked After System in RCT
SONIG is currently working with young people living within the Looked After System in Rhondda Cynon Taff, with the aim of creating a positive welcome DVD for all young people entering care for the first time. Working with media professionals, our DVD media team will create the DVD from initial scriptwriting processes to editing the final cut! SONIG is also talking to organisations who work with young people in the looked after system to create a strategic action plan, looking at ways to ensure the arts is recognised as an important aspect of life for young people interested in the arts and living in care.
If you are a young person living in an RCT Community Home or in Foster Care, interested in being on the Media Team described above or who has a positive experience of living in care that you would like to share, please contact Tanya Walker-Brown on:
