The Diversity Music Community project aims to equip young people aged between 14-24with the knowledge and skills which are essential in dealing with the effects of violence. Our music activity aims to direct youth away from crime and/or knife crime by providing positive role models and tutors to mentor them.
Our workshops/projects focus on developing their knowledge and understanding of music and its benefits, but also by helping them to build their confidence and effective communication and life skills in a supported environment. For a duration of five weeks, we ran three study-based workshops at Ormiston Academy.
We made conversation stages pointed toward building trust fortitude and certainty to console well-being on exposures on issues that affected them or circumstances that have prompted helpless decision making.
These sessions ended up being ground-breaking and interesting for the young people.
