Young Urban Arts Foundation (YUAF) were at Beam Park on the 27th July delivering workshops for the children of the estate. Workshops included DJ taster sessions, Music Production, T-Shirt making and Creative Writing. These were all delivered by YUAF on board their double decker multi-media bus. The bus provided ample coverage so none of the activities were affected by the not so great July weather!

YUAF are a youth charity whose mission is to empower the lives of young people by strengthening mental well-being through creativity. L&Q have worked with them previously on other projects and they came highly recommended.

Over 20 children aged between 8 - 19 attended on the day to enjoy the activities. The children were either trying out one of the activities for the first time or came to relish in something that was close to their hearts. Whichever it was, it was clear to see that Beam Park has some very talented musicians in the making! 

The T-Shirt making was also a big hit with the children so much so even the mums and dads got involved and made their own!

A big thanks to the staff of YUAF for providing valuable and enjoyable workshops. 

As the day was such a success we have asked YUAF to come back to Beam Park to host more workshops so keep an eye out for further details!
