Join us for a performance from Step Out. Children undergoing physiotherapy at RHCYP discovered a passion for dance and movement through the dance programme they took part in while in hospital. Once children and young people left hospital they faced difficulties accessing dance classes in the community. Recognising this gap and identified need, ECHC partnered with Dance Base to create Step Out. The goal of these classes is to provide space for creative movement and connection in a fun and friendly environment, inspiring confidence, and empowering young people through dance.

After the performance there will be a panel discussion involving young people and artists presenting an insight and posing the question 'How does the integration of art and movement in confined spaces like hospitals foster holistic healing and empowerment for children and young people'?
