Escalate
(A community arts project to ignite ambition and training supported by Fairshare)
Escalate is designed to help young people gain accreditation and ignite interest in training and careers within the arts and media. Escalate will see young people develop skills in three creative practices and offer one to one tutorials with industry professionals to advise on areas such as C.V writing, confidence building, internship and work experience opportunities.

Something Old, Something New
(St. Martins Special school supported by Awards For All)
Fifth Word is working alongside St. Martins special school to deliver a community project in response to a move to a new build school. The project will challenge stereotypes held about young people with special needs and give these young people a chance to have their voices heard culminating in a celebratory event for the whole community.
