How our referral process works
-
Fill out our referral form
This is so we can get to know a bit about you/the person you are referring. Once we receive the referral we will respond in 7 days.
-
Visit the space
We will then be in touch to arrange a visit to our space to see if the young person feels happy here, and to answer any questions they or the family/referral partner may have.
-
Try a taster session
When we have a suitable space on our creative programme they will be invited for a trial session. If they are happy we can then continue weekly from there in the term time.
