Empowering SEND and disabled creativity

Seeking Talent aims to empower Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) poets and artists by showcasing their creativity in events set in non-traditional spaces, thereby reaching an expanded audience.

We see live performance poetry and visual art in particular as a vital means to explore and express the lived experiences associated with SEND. By doing so, this encourages a communal re-examination of societal stereotypes, stigma and representation in society.
