PARTNER TESTIMONIALS

Kate Harvey, Littlegreen School

Thank you so much! Our student is having an amazing time at DV8 on Tuesdays! I have noticed a real boost in his self esteem and confidence and he is so proud to be part of the project, he speaks well of all the students and staff and has really grown in stature and maturity, I am very proud of him.

JENNI LEE-MILLER, SENCO - CUCKMERE HOUSE SCHOOL

I would like to take this opportunity to formally express our thanks for the brilliant work you have done with one of our students this term, this is a young man with very complex needs, both emotionally and academically.Your staff have enabled him to experience success and raise his self esteem at a difficult time in his life. I would unreservedly recommend your project to any school thinking of participating.

MOIRA ENGLAND, DOROTHY STRINGER SCHOOL

I feel we have struck lucky having the chance to send our young people to Dv8. The positive attitude of the trainers and the creatvity that it can open up even in the last likely young people is fantastic. It is a safe and open environment and I feel very confident referring young people to them.

ELEE DYSON, CONNEXIONS PA

Dv8 provides excellent learning opportunities for young people - the clients I have reffered into the programmes have all had positive experiences and have benefitted massively from the programme. I am very impressed with how DV8 support their learners into further opportunities on completion of their course. Excellent work!

The Dv8 team are extremely flexible in responding to the needs of the KS4EP in Brighton & Hove. I find them very professional, keeping the needs of the young people at the heart of everything they do.

Grace howarth, community action co-ordinator - blatchington mill school

Dv8 were very friendly with our students, and motivated them successfully - throughout the workshop, the young people were engaged and creative, which was obviously an indication of the quality of the trainers.

I was delighted to be invited to spend some time working with the young people DV8 are helping. It was obvious that the patience, commitment, time, talent and resources that DV8 devotes to the community are helping young people to achieve some incredibly positive things and unlock enormous potential within themselves. The work I saw and heard was inspiring: DV8 gives young people a vital creative outlet today as well as skills for their futures. Sometimes music and the visual arts are the only ways in which people can communicate, and by offering young people a safe place to be themselves, DV8 show what can be achieved.
