Just Look At Me Now!

Get Sorted are featured in a report on the 'Just Look At Me Know' project that was published by IBK Initiatives.

The Living and Learning Now pilot project (Sheffield and Barnsley), funded by the Learning and Skills Council and delivered by Mencap, is designed to enable disabled young people with high support needs have greater choice about what to do with their lives when they leave school.

Get Sorted provided “opportunities for everyone, including young disabled people, to learn to play musical instruments, sing, film making, drama and dance, music technology and DJ and MC skills.”

And a quote from Genya, taken from the report, sum’s it all up:

 

“I think they have all benefited from it. It has been an exciting project, it has been exciting for the service users because they have had the opportunity for choices they have never had before.”
