The Moving on Up fun days held in Leeds and London were attended by over 150 people and there was lots of fun to be had!
The First Chancers rap group with Felix performed some fantastic tunes and got the groups learnging about drum machines, keyboards and each other before recording their own rap tune! The Full Body and the Voice team used dramatic devices to help think about emotions and how we use our whole bodies to show people how we feel with some exciting results. The Rix Centre helped young people think about waht they were good at and what they might like to do in the future. They found different props to help the young people illustrate what they wanted to do - with funky effects and some great photos!
The best thing about the day for the Moving On Up team ws hearing the positive feedback from the young people and seeing how much evetns like this, that bring us together and give information, are needed.
Lots of you asked when the next events are and we are looking for funding to support the links made by the young people and to spread the word about all the good things out there to get involved in.
In the meantime, we can keep you posted of anything we find out about on the Moving On UP website and the Moving On Update! ❏
