INSPIRE - Studio & Outreach
Inspire provides visual arts and creative opportunities for young people aged 16+ experiencing challenging circumstances, mental ill health and barriers to employment.
The Inspire Outreach Programme Engages young people in partnership with community organisations and schools.
We invite schools in the Stirling / Clacks area to get in touch to discuss what we can offer and work together to deliver fun and rich creative workshop experiences for young people.
Ethan, a student from Alloa Academy, and his YPI Group Kaitlin, Liam, Marta and Robyn have produced an animated video about the work of Reachout.
We love it!
