Visitors with Special Educational Needs (SEN)
At Street Style Surgery, we are proud to have over 20 years of experience working with children and young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN). Our workshops are designed to be inclusive, accessible, and empowering. We believe every young person should have the opportunity to express themselves, build confidence, and develop new skills in a supportive environment.
All of our urban arts workshops can be adapted to meet the individual needs of participants. We are skilled in working with young people who may face challenges with communication, mobility, sensory processing, or behavioural needs, and we tailor our delivery to suit those requirements with sensitivity and care.
Our sessions often provide an alternative way for SEN pupils to connect with others, regulate emotions, and find joy in creative expression. Many of our past participants have flourished in these workshops finding success and pride in their creations, performances, and contributions. Whether it's the calm focus of painting a canvas, the rhythm and structure of lyric writing, or the freedom of movement in dance, each activity offers meaningful opportunities for personal growth.
Street Style Surgery is committed to creating safe, inclusive spaces where creativity and individuality are celebrated. We continue to work closely with SEN schools, support staff, and care professionals to ensure that every workshop we deliver is both impactful and enjoyable for all involved.
