Work with NYBEP

Apollo tries to work closely with education providers and trainers to help young people who might want to work in the Creative Industries. This includes providing work placements, year in industry opportunities and supporting other learning initiatives.

Today I was working with Jacki Dealtry from NYBEP, who is working with interactive sound and light equipment. She uses this as part of NYBEP's work to engage young people with science and technology as part of the STEM programme.

Sensory Room at York University

Today I was working in the Multi-Sensory Room at the Department of Health Sciences at the University of York. This is a room used for training and research, forming part of the 'mock ward' in the building.

Apollo is working with the Department to upgrade the room and provide training to staff on the use of this flexible resource.
