Character from !ntense
|
!ntense Board Game Project With Salford YOT
!ntense is a board game designed and made by young people from Salford Youth Offending Team with TiPP and visual artist Caroline Daley.
It demonstrates in a fun, interactive way the route a young person takes as they engage with their Intensive Supervision & Surveillance Programme.
Each player is given the character of a young person and the journey they make on the visually stimulating board game is dependent on different aspects of the character e.g. age, gender, offending history.
The players experience reparation, health care, victim awareness and anger management, with the risk of going to custody for breaching the order!

TiPP and Wagontrain Partnership
TiPP are pleased to announce a fantastic new partnership with the recently established arts organisation, Wagontrain.
The two organisations are linking up to develop a major new anti knife and gang crime project called Straight to the Point. Straight to the Point utilises a purpose built 45 foot articulated truck containing several inter-linked theatrical ‘sets’ which provide individualised, real time experiences of the consequences of carrying and using knives.
For some fantastic images of the proposed project, go to Wagontrain's website, detailed below.

Contact Project Profiled at Two National Conferences
TiPP were invited to deliver a practical workshop demonstrating the effectiveness of drama based approaches at engaging young parents at a series of recent conference events organised by the Trust for the Study of Adolescences (soon to be renamed Youth in Focus). The conferences – Parenting Inside and Out – gave TiPP an opportunity to profile our latest creative arts training programme – Contact.
Contact, TiPP's latest project, revolves around the creation of a series of "write as you go" drama episodes that combine together to form a recorded play exploring the themes of parenthood, responsibility and the challenges that parents face when separated from their children by imprisonment.
Episodes are devised, performed and recorded by a group of inmates under the supervision of TiPP workers. Contact is designed to be a flexible project and can be delivered over three days, as part of an intensive residency or spread out over several weeks.

Shine!

Shine!
In response to requests from a local ISSP team, TiPP developed an arts based programme specifically for young women. Shine is a holistic female only programme looking at issues around self esteem and positive body image.
Shine uses a wide range of art forms including drama, poetry, dance and visual art and provides a protected space for young women and staff to come together and explore topics relevant to them. The project can can build to a performance or presentation if that is appropriate for the group, or conclude with a more private celebration event.
Young women take part in arts activities, creating work to keep and display. They also learn skills such as hand massage, and participate in healthy living tasks such as buying and preparing food.
Shine is easily adaptable for work in secure settings.
