ABOUT THE HELIUM ARTS YOUTH ADVISORY GROUP (YAG)
At Helium Arts, we believe that in order to work with young people, it is vital that you listen to them first. This is why our Youth Advisory Group (YAG) is such an important part of our organisation. The Helium Arts Youth Advisory Group is a voice for young people living with lifelong physical health conditions. Through creative workshops, facilitated by the Helium artist team, YAG participants share their thoughts and experiences on how creative opportunities can support the wellbeing of young people managing lifelong physical health conditions.
Watch the video below that was created by and stars our existing YAG members to get a feel for what’s involved.
