Title

Theatre Modo was brought in to provide stilt walking workshops for the young offenders in the secure unit outside Airdrie. Stilt walking was chosen as a fun and challenging activity that could boost confidence, self esteem and self image of the young people.

"Through these workshops the young people people were offered the opportunity to learn new skills. They were encouraged to work together as a team to instil trust in self and others. They were also encouraged to build self-confidence and develop communication skills. We were very impressed by the skills of the workshop leaders and how well they worked with the young people." Youth Worker
