London calling Speak Up!

London Speak Up!

The BHF Head Office was the location for the Speak Up workshop held in London on Saturday 7th November.  The first challenge of the day was to negotiate the London Underground and bus network to get to Greater London House by 10am. Not an easy task! 

After spending the morning doing activities which will build up their confidence and communication skills, the young people broke off for lunch at the Pulse Café. 

The afternoon allowed the young people to focus on communicating with others about their condition and created some brilliant masks to represent their feelings. 

The day ended at Madame Tussauds where the young people mingled with the stars.

What did the young people say about the day???

Buckets of confidence.

Learnt a lot about how to talk about my condition

I liked all of it and really enjoyed myself
