What's On Offer
Cardboard Citizens’ Young People’s Programme is for those aged 16–25 who are part of our Citz membership. This includes young people with lived experience of, or at risk of, homelessness and poverty, as well as those in temporary accommodation, care leavers, and those accessing statutory support services.
We offer a range of free creative workshops that are open to everyone. These workshops give you the chance to gain qualifications, develop your creative skills, perform, and get support with your next steps in the creative industries.
You can find all current and upcoming workshops and opportunities on our What’s On page.
