Square Pegs Arts

About

Square Pegs Arts is a Kent-based Charity that runs drama, music & arts based activities for children & young people aged 7-25 who have learning disabilities or autism and a professional Theatre Company for adult performers with learning disabilities or autism.

We use drama, music, movement and other creative methods to develop confidence, self esteem, communication skills & wellbeing. We nurture friendships and social skills by creating a supportive & caring environment where everyone feels valued, respected, able to be themselves and feel a sense of belonging.

We focus on the abilities of each individual, and find ways for everyone to shine in their own way. We feel passionately that aspirations & quality of experience shouldn't be compromised because the young people have special needs and strive to promote respect, awareness and understanding in the wider community.

We have a strong volunteer programme and recently won the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service.
