IT WAS REALLY FUN<br />
WORKING WITH THE<br />
PUPILS FROM THE<br />
SCHOOL BECAUSE<br />
EVEN THOUGH THEY<br />
HAVE A DIFFERENT<br />
LIFE, THEY CAN<br />
STILL DO THE SAME<br />
AS US, IT’S JUST<br />
THAT THEY’VE GOT<br />
A DISABILITY. THEY<br />
DON’T GIVE UP.<br />
WHAT WE DID<br />
creative:connection enabled 153<br />
disabled and non-disabled young<br />
people to collaborate creatively,<br />
allowing them to develop new<br />
skills and shared understanding.<br />
