Hidden Voices
Spring/ Summer 2023
PARTNERS: Kool Carers & Towngate Theatre
FUNDER: Essex County Council’s Arts & Culture Fund
Hidden Voices, a collaboration with Kool Carers, addressed the growing need for impactful creative projects supporting young carers facing mental health challenges and neurodivergence.
The young carers produced striking images, incorporating text and spoken word to craft personal portraits revealing their often hidden narratives. Their work was showcased at Towngate Theatre as part of Carers Week 2023.
“I enjoyed taking photos, being creative & making new friends. I felt happy & part of a team”
