Young people aged 14 to 18 are taking part in a residential programme run by charity LIFEbeat that uses creative processes such as music, art, personal story telling and games to boost self-esteem and develop leadership skills.
Throughout the eight-day residential trip funded by the charity, the young people have the opportunity to choose between a variety of different workshops and activities, from drumming and dance to lyric writing and nature walks.
Four themes are built into the programmes: self-esteem, emotional intelligence, resilience and social skills. Within a diverse group of young people, they begin to build a greater and more positive and empathetic understanding of themselves and others.
