Last week, You Press was featured as part of a local school’s careers week.

We had a number of young people (aged 11-14) join us to gain insight into what it’s like to work at You Press, a social enterprise specialising in creative arts.

We gave the students this insight by taking them through our ScribersHive storytelling methodology; where they had to create a letter and a drawing/storyboard about a social issue in the local area.

This activity is reflective of what we do here at You Press; we identify issues in our community and use creative outlets (writing, film, illustration, music & poetry) to draw attention to these issues to influence social change.

Getting to opportunity to give these students hope for the future was fantastic.

Thank you to our freelancer Ali for co-facilitating this workshop.

After a three year pause due to the pandemic, this April we had the pleasure of bringing back our annual community dinner at Queen Victoria Seaman’s Rest (QVSR).

We are so pleased that we were able to create warm and joyful space for community members to come together and feast, whilst watching some amazing poetry performances.

Many were positively impacted by the dinner and expressed their utmost gratitude, some attendees were so passionate that they even helped us clean up!

Thank you to Queen Victoria Seaman’s Rest, all the attendees, performers & every person who helped make this event so special!

Check out this video to see more of what we got up to!
