Destigmatising ‘The D word’

At the Orpheus centre, the days between the 24th and 28th May were dedicated to hearing from the disabled community outside of Orpheus. Zoom workshops were led by artists to encourage students to think about their own identities and what the word ‘disability’ has meant to them.
Transitioning from Orpheus

Transition from Orpheus is very special, beginning when students attend assessment and continuing throughout the time they are with us and beyond.
