Newly-formed theatre company Dramatize starts workshops in the Elmbridge area in April.

Weekly therapeutic dance, music, drama and performance sessions will be held for people aged 16 to 40 with special educational needs.

Dramatize is the brainchild of Karen Bradley who began work in the theatre industry at a young age and has vast experience working with young adults with learning difficulties.

She will lead sessions with a qualified therapist and Dramatize trustees to empower young adults to voice their opinion, gain confidence and improve their social skills.

Call 07912 183085 or email dramatizeTC@live.co.uk for more information about sessions.
