Visit our Exhibition

Until December 14th there's an exhibition of art work made by children in care in Wakefield.

It's at Anglers Country Park.

Please come and see it!!

We are... is an invitation to listen, understand, and stand together with the young people of our care-experienced community.

The exhibition features an interactive kite activity, where we can all add our hope and dream. To show we all want the same things. After the exhibition it will all go in a time capsule to be buried on 11 January 2024 at Pontefract Castle, set to be opened in 2125. This time capsule will hold the stories and aspirations of today’s youth, ensuring that their voices are heard long into the future.

    This is a really lovely nomination compiling a series of highlights for the
    group. We particularly love the examples of training being implemented
    for newly qualified social workers. Also that engagement goes up to the
    age of 32!
    Overall it's really amazing to see the range of work, training and
    activities taking place in Wakefield. The young people seem really
    involved with their local council and that is amazing.
