HMPYOI Feltham

We were pleased to be one of three arts companies delivering activity as part of the inaugural Feltham Arts Programme. 

We worked with different groups of learners, aged 18-21, one day a week for six weeks and invited in a range of writers, poets and visual artists to work with the group and inspire them to create their own letters, poems and artworks. 

Work was shared at the end of the six weeks at a showcase for family members. With permission, copies of the work are shared externally to challenge assumptions people may have about young people living in prison. 

All work belongs to the creators and is kept in a portfolio which they can use, display and share to celebrate their achievements and highlight the personal development they have made through the course, some submitting their work to a range of creative competitions.
