What we do
Creative Connections
Crewe Lyceum Theatre has teamed up with Visyon, a local mental health charity dedicated to supporting the emotional well-being of children, young people, and their families in Cheshire East.
We’re offering a free 10-week programme for young people aged 12-16, where they can explore various creative outlets and learn valuable skills for managing their mental health and overall wellbeing.
