Roundabout is a registered charity providing dramatherapy services across London, working with some of the most disadvantaged people in the community, aged 3 to 102.
This year Roundabout celebrates 36 years of using drama therapeutically to help those in great need. Please help us to provide 36 more years of dramatherapy for the community.
There are several ways in which you can help the charity continue with our valuable work:
£10
could contribute to an hour of Dramatherapy for a child with Autism, helping her find ways to express herself and her needs through creativity.
£25
could help fund Dramatherapy sessions with a group of older adults who are isolated and vulnerable, creating friendships and support.
£50
could help someone with mental health difficulties through 1:1 Dramatherapy sessions, generating self-awareness and coping strategies.
Help us spread the benefits of dramatherapy!
