Designing a Creative Approach

Theatre NEMO’s conference in the Scottish Youth Theatre on Thursday 7th February was a great success with over 80 people attending. There were two performances by the Barlinnie cast, theatre workshops and authoritative speakers.

Andrew McClellan, HM Chief Inspector of Prisons said that “I was hugely impressed at the conference by the very creative approach Theatre Nemo adopts to supporting people with mental health problems. I had been made aware some time ago of the positive impact this work is having on prisoners in Barlinnie. My hope would be that the work may be extended to other establishments on a regular basis.”
