Ongoing Programmes

A Young Person's Guide to the YPSMS

Recently completed - Commissioned by the Young Person's Substance Misuse Service at HMYOI Brinsford, this short film is being used during induction as a way to raise awareness of services available within the prison.

Say Goodnight to the Bad Guy Workshop Programme

Following on from the success of the tour of the show Say Goodnight to the Bad Guy, between April and October 2008, the company are delivering a series of six mini-residencies at prisons across the West Midlands. These residencies will last four days in each prison and involve drama, storytelling and film making. The purpose of each residency is to create a short DVD of new stories inspired by the relationships and dilemmas presented in the show which will then be sent out to family members of participating prisoners. Themes under exploration in the workshops will include unfinished business, loyalty, obligation, and illusion.

Funding for this programme comes from Arts Council England Grants for the Arts, The Nationwide Foundation, and The Lankelly Chase Foundation.

This is a three-day course for inmates who have completed the Prison Service’s accredited programme on substance related offending. It follows a similar template to the CALM course in that it uses games and exercises to test and practice ways of coping with craving and avoiding relapse
