Sussex Association for Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus
The project was a 4-day workshop running from 25-28 October 2022 (inclusive) where 24 young people with physical and learning disabilities attended. It included both drama and music, and forms part of Sasbah’s programme for young people which has been highly successful in delivering huge developmental benefits for those participating, for many showing that they can do things they never imagined.
The Sussex Association for Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus SASBAH) provides lifelong well-being support for over 1,000 children and adults of all ages across Sussex who are affected by these conditions. Young people with these complex physical and learning disabilities are often excluded from mainstream society, including the arts, and suffer disproportionately with poor mental health.
We promote the well-being of people of all ages across Sussex affected by spina bifida and hydrocephalus, enabling them to lead the lives they want to. We are thrilled to have been granted £2,500 by the Pixel Foundation, to offer a drama and music workshop in the autumn of 2020 to twenty-five young people with these complex disabilities.
