The Shieldfield Youth Programme :

We are pleased to announce that we will be having a talent show titled  

‘Stars of Shieldfield’ on Wednesday the 6th of December. 

 At 4.30-6.30pm

At Star and Shadow Cinema

(210 Warwick Street NE2 1BB Newcastle upon Tyne, UK)

Here the members of the youth programme will perform and showcase their talents. They are recently practising their performers with the Skimstone Arts.

In addition to this, members of the Shieldfield youth voice group will launch three songs they have written and recorded with musician and rapper Kema Kay about the need for change in our local area.  

Creates a space for young people to come together in the place where they live, build new friendships, and offers opportunities for them to develop their skills and talents and to explore new ways of thinking and doing things together. It aims to empower people to become active members of the local community and is locally rooted, thematically strong and aims to instil values of solidarity, social and economic justice, creativity and activism.

Our team can be found out and about in Shieldfield meeting lots of great young people, creating and running lots of different community events as well as working with the young people themselves to have a positive impact on the place we live and work!
