Rise and Shine: Exploring wellbeing through high quality creative dance in SEND settings (360G-phf-39628)

Northern Ballet is a major national professional touring dance company based in Leeds. Their repertoire of theatrical dance productions emphasises both storytelling as well as classical ballet. Their dance education work includes advanced training, intensive workshops, and weekly open access classes for children and adults. This grant will allow Northern Ballet to build on their existing schools work targeting children and young people experiencing systemic inequality; for this project they plan to target children and young people with profound and multiple learning difficulties in three specialist settings in Yorkshire.
