Burnley primary care networks launch Children’s Resilience Project with Burnley Youth Theatre

Primary care network clinical directors of Burnley East and West, Dr Yas Naheed and Dr James Fleming have teamed up with six primary schools in Burnley and Burnley Youth Theatre to offer Burnley children the chance to learn how to manage stress, anxiety and coping skills as well as build confidence and self-esteem.

The project which has been supported by all practices in the two Burnley GP primary care networks will see children from the six schools visiting Burnley Youth Theatre over a 9 week period to learn acting and theatrical skills alongside children from throughout Burnley. In the final week of the course, the children will showcase a performance at the theatre for parents, family and friends. Find out more here:
