Providing drama activities for SEN children and elderly people with emigrant families to explore the meaning of life and gain mental support

The venture uses applied theatre to promote mental health among children who have special educational needs (SEN) and elders with emigrant families. The theatrical pieces themed on life and death education invite participants to explore the meaning of life. Through facilitating interactions in the theatre, the venture hopes to help SEN children establish self-worth and enable elders with emigrant families to feel respected and cared for by the community. Moreover, these arts experiences not only establish emotional connections between the generations but also build community support networks for them. The young and old will no longer be isolated by society as they build confidence through their relationships and provide support to each other.
