Working closely with Essex Youth Service, The Britten Partnership created the ‘Surviving the Teenage Years’ conference. Featuring an applied theatre performance of the same name, ‘Surviving the Teenage Years’ raises awareness of a whole range of issues that young people face. The conference pulls together organisations, charities and services that work with young people in a one day event that aims to equip young people with the tools, knowledge and resilience needed to ‘survive the teenage years.’
Workshops included:
a) MIND (mental health)
b) Gangs
c) Drugs & alcohol awareness
d) Healthy relationships and consent
