Theatre of the Senses CIC is a registered Community Interest Company, a user led group with a committee of three people, some whom have personal experience of mental health problems including depression and bipolar disorder. We aim in our work to provide support services to peo
ple with emotional or psychological distress, drugs and alcohol misuse. Beneficiaries include older people, unemployed, BME communities, carers, and young people not in education, employment or training. We use dance and drama to improve mental and physical wellbeing, and promote social inclusion. We aim also is to provide increased opportunities for volunteers to take on responsibilities in running our workshops and food bank, stage management, administration, and performance. To offer a wide range of opportunities for people to learn and exchange new and interesting skills, and to work together towards a common creative goal. We use performance, drama, and reading groups, to improve participants' mental health, physical wellbeing, and social inclusion, within a creative and supportive social environment. We encourage beneficiaries and volunteers to assume leadership of the projects, so that this community resource can be maintained and become sustainable.
