Let’s Dance! Holiday Club

Filled with creative dance sessions, Let’s Dance! Holiday Club is a fun, energetic and imaginative way for young people to learn and express themselves through movement. DanceEast will provide a nutritious hot lunch, healthy snack, and drink, as well as arts and crafts activities. It’s a great chance for young people to form new friendships, build confidence and develop fresh new skills.

ACCESS AND INCLUSION

We’re committed to making Holiday Club accessible for as many young people as possible. Here are some of the things we do to make it an inclusive space:

• A welcome tour drop-in will be available. This is a chance for young people to visit our building with their guardians, get familiar with the space and ask any questions they may have. No need to book, just drop in.
• A visual story will be available for Holiday Club. This includes pictures of the building and our friendly staff.
• Leading Lives and Indigo Opportunity Support Workers: We’re grateful to receive funding from Activities Unlimited to include two Support Workers from Leading Lives/Indigo Opportunities in our Holiday Club Team. These support workers help assist our young people in the studio and at mealtimes and can also support with any personal care needs. We also have brilliant assistant dance artists that can provided 1-2-1 support to young people.
• Quiet Space: This is where our young people can have a breather with some fidget toys, blankets and bean bags if things get a little too much. They’re welcome to use this space any time.

The accessibility of Let’s Dance! Holiday Club has been described by guardians as:

“Absolutely perfect.”

“Having you guys has been such a blessing and it’s incredible that you provide such an inclusive environment that we feel safe to leave our girls in and know they are supported.”

“Very good.”

“I am 100% confident that my child is well cared for and able to express herself if she needs to.”
