We encourage all performance artists to apply and secure ongoing support from Access to Work
Coming later in 2023: CPD workshops for neurodivergent artists to expand their practice and collectively improve access provisions!

Readmission policy – you can come and go as you please
Latecomers are welcome (try not to be late but if you are, you can still come in!)
