Concrete Youth are delighted to announce that it has been awarded the Corporate Vision Award 2023 for Best Sensory Education.
Concrete Youth’s Education & Engagement Department is the only department in the UK linked to a theatre company to offer curriculum-focussed, sensory education for people labelled as having profound and multiple learning disabilities. The department offers sensory stories, sensory workshops, sensory parties and story massage sessions, as well as training and consultancy for theatres, schools and care settings.
Daniel Swift FRSA, Concrete Youth's CEO & Co-Artistic Director, said:
"We're so delighted to have been recognised in this way. The team in the Education & Engagement Department work tirelessly to consistently offer essential and exceptional, regular cultural provision to schools, care and respite settings across the UK.
We're also incredibly thrilled that such high profile awards such as Corporate Vision have recognised this work, widening the awareness of people labelled with profound and multiple learning disabilities in the UK and beyond, and the need for high-quality provision for them."
Annabelle Lee, Head of Education & Engagement said:
"It is so wonderful to be recognised as 'The Best Sensory Education Experience for Disabled People 2023' by the Corporate Vision Education and Training Awards. This award wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic audiences and settings who have supported and sustained us over the last 5 years. You have taught us so much about your sensory world and we can't wait to continue developing our sensory education services for you to enjoy for years to come!"
Corporate Vision’s Education & Training Awards shine the spotlight on the paragons of education and training. Whether delivering consultancy, support or professional training opportunities, we have endeavoured to showcase those that have truly come to define the sector that they work in. These educators are changing peoples’ lives for the better, opening doors to new opportunities and, ultimately, success.
"This award wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic audiences and settings who have supported and sustained us over the last 5 years."
Concrete Youth's Education & Engagement Department continues to work in schools, care and respite settings across the UK and beyond, and is available for booking now by emailing annabelle@concreteyouth.co.uk.
