I have worked in a variety of community settings including: Kyle Resource Centre (Ayr), Hansel Village (Symington) and Riverside Day Care Centre Cumnock). These centres accomidate adults with a variety of learning difficulties and complex support needs. Schools provision is an integral part of my work. I have taught at Craigpark School (Ayr), Southpark School (Ayr)and Hillside School (Cumnock) leading workshops in a variety of arts activities. I have delivered drama workshops to adults with mental health difficulties at Ailsa Hospital (Ayr), Crosshouse Hospital (Kilmarnock), Hartfield House Resource Centre (Ayr) and Three Towns Resource Centre (Stevenson). As Course Leader for HNC/D Acting and Performance I organised and managed schools tours offering workshops and forum theatre performance dealing with issues that may concern young people. This was offered primary and secondary level. We took shows to Alloway Primary School, John Pollock Centre, Dalmilling Primary School, Doon Academy and Girvan Academy. |
