Creative Lab

Creative Lab is a small, supportive and creative group for young people aged 14-17 facing barriers to education. 

Through engaging art-based activities, we support young people to discover and expand their creative interests while exploring what truly matters to them. Our goal is to help them build social and emotional skills, boost confidence and empower them through creative self-expression.


Although we are not an education provider, we hope the skills gained at Creative Lab will help young people reconnect with learning and support their transition back into formal education.

The group is led by a team of skilled youth practitioners, and we work closely with community partners and professionals to ensure young people receive comprehensive, youth-centred support tailored to their needs and guided by their interests.

We welcome young people from East Kent who are not attending school, as well as care-experienced young people and those with an allocated social worker.
