WHAT'S NEXT
Sensory Inclusion
Winter 2024: Defining Futures and Sound Mynds plan to incorporate Sensory inclusion into all work delivered to young people, with plans to implement Sensory Rooms and pods both at our intervention centre and in our homes for young people. We understand that Sensory engagement is so important for young people and having a dedicated sensory outlet, is something that all young people can benefit from.
Who are Sound Mynds?
Sound Mynds was created for young people who have lived through an array of experiences, initially targeting young people who were going through the criminal justice system
Sound Mynds sought to offer musical intervention for young people needing a creative outlet, a safe space and somewhere they could be accepted for who they are based at our intervention centre comprising of music studios, DJ rooms, tutoring rooms and podcasting rooms.
The programme and our facility grew to include 'Active Futures' a dedicated gym with fitness a programme delivered by qualified, professional fitness instructors.
The next step for Sound Mynds was to register as an Alternative Provision to provide tuition and behavioural change through activity mentoring. This was successfully incorporated into the programme which is now accepting referrals and is accessible to all Defining Futures residents.
