On 12th March 2019 an “inclusive” event was organised alongside Leonard Cheshire and CRISP. The work was deliberately located in Hindley to support work in 2019 around ramblers’ routes, family walks and the Bat Guardians project at Amberswood. The day welcomed young people with additional needs from five organisations Expanse, My Life, IDS CIC, SKILS CIC and the Hamlet. The day involved six elements an art display from Expanse and My Life (Through our Eyes project), a photographic display (Hamlet), a theatre Piece "the Story of the Flashes" with the creation of wildlife props for future events (IDS), a Top Trumps game (Hamlet), a moveable nature trail (SkilsCIC) and under the microscope bug hunting experience (Expanse and My Life). A legacy of this project is that the electronic microscope and props can be used for future events. There is the creation of two legacy digital outputs to sit on the "resources for teachers" part of the Carbon Landscape website: 1) Electronic version of the Top Trump Cards 2) The theatre piece presentation which has narration and a soundtrack telling the Story of the Flashes. Enjoy the Theatre Piece in Slideshow mode where there is also audio.
