The Create Group

This programme specifically focussed on the mental health and creative needs of young refugee, asylum seeking and undocumented men aged 21 - 30. From November 2024 to March 2026, bi-weekly workshops used the arts to enable young men impacted by displacement to build connections, explore creativity and build advocacy related to their experiences.

As part of the workshop series, the young men created an audio recording documenting their experiences and sharing their views:
