Programme Info

Escape Arts are proud to be founding members of Stratford Youth Collective, a new charity set up in 2023 to secure the future of youth services for young people in Stratford-upon-Avon. The Collective is made up of 5 founding partners Escape Arts, Warwickshire Pride, ILEAP, New Meaning Training and Lifespace Trust, supported by Stratford Town Trust. Stratford Youth Collective is now based at the prominent building formerly known as The Ministry on Birmingham Road, which we opened in September 2023.

It will provide a safe and inclusive space for young people to engage in a range of activities, including arts, education, personal development, work experience, training and community engagement.
