Community Outreach For Schools & Youth Services
IYT is proud to be a key provider of free weekend and holiday drama provision in the London Borough of Haringey.
We believe the performing arts serves as a mechanism for change in the lives of the young people we work with. All our projects cultivate communication, literacy and life skills and support gifted and talented young people. Our programmes are needs led and we work with a wide range of creative partners to ensure young people who could most benefit from our services access our project

We provide additional support to young people in need who are referred to our projects. Support includes:
Progressive group programmes
Individualised support throughout the project
