The Social Skills Agency

• What they offer / teach

  The Social Skills Agency runs social skills learning programmes delivered through music groups, drama clubs, film clubs and similar activities, using resources such as music, drama, films, comics and Lego. These are aimed at developing emotional vocabulary, self-awareness and social communication. Groups and clubs are organised around shared interests so young people can meet like-minded peers.

• Ages served

  Programmes are for children and young people aged 10-25 years old.

• Approach

  The approach uses young people's passions and special interests as tools for developing social communication, organising groups around shared interests and focused, meaningful activities. The site quotes Jennifer Cook O'Toole's Asperkids on building upon a child's existing special interests as a way into their hearts and minds. It states the programmes support those who struggle with social communication, particularly those on the Autism Spectrum, including the introverted, anxious, lonely, bullied and over-enthusiastic.

• Admissions
