State of Flux 2.0

Ludus Dance uses dance as a tool of expression and trust, building on strength and recognising potential, to change and enhance people’s lives. Working across a wide range of social, educational and mental health and wellbeing settings, and especially with children and young people who have a limited access to high quality experiences, we create vital opportunities through work that is bespoke, collaborative and inclusive. State of Flux 2.0 is an initiative proposed by Ludus Dance, funded by BBC Children in Need, which uses the arts to support soft and hard skills development, reduce social isolation and develop self -worth and aspirations in young people from The Cove (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service CAMHS), Heysham. The initiative implies working with professional artists, and the participants learn about film, dance and music, working together to build resilience, improve communication skills and rebuild relationships through weekly sessions on the ward, community sessions and sharing events.
