Show Notes

This week we speak to Beth Vecchione, social worker, Frontline fellow and founder of Care to Dance – a social enterprise that is using dance to improve the wellbeing of children in care in the North East. Beth speaks about the importance of building a community where young people can form meaningful relationships, grow their confidence, and talk about their futures. During lockdown, Beth and the Care to Dance team have kept the momentum going by sharing TikTok dances, as well as weekly check ins on Instagram. Finally, she talks about the importance of making young people aware of their resilience during this time. Enjoy!
