OUR WORKSHOPS

Our workshops allow students to challenge unrealistic body expectations through an intersectional framework. We recognise that body image often intersects with race, gender and disabilities. Our mission is to ensure that every student is seen and supported accordingly.

All workshops are offered for Year 7+ and can be tailored to your schools needs
