Been There Done That (Btdt) Cic

BTDT Poetry Workshops believe that by delivering poetry and Creative visual work through workshops covering sensitive issues such as Drug and Alcohol Dependency, Domestic Violence, Mental Health Issues, and Homelessness will have a significant impact on the audience of the workshops. These workshops are authentic and honest and are to be delivered by myself and other members who have lived and survived through the above-named subjects. This helps people in attendance of the workshops see that change is possible and that there can be a different future in the foreseeable.

These workshops will be delivered not only through poetry but other avenues such as Drama, Creative Writing and Music. Whilst delivering the proposed workshops I believe that I will be able to address issues and help deliver coping strategies to the audience, each poem that will be delivered in the workshops addresses the issues rose on a personal level and are intended to have a positive ending.

I understand that a lot of the time when people are in a situation beyond their control it can be frustrating and lead to feelings of worthlessness or self-doubt. I would like to bring out positives from negatives and prove to the audience that there are other avenues that they can go down other than drink, alcohol, violence or gambling and that if you have a hobby or something that you can focus on which can be an alternative approach then that will provide their life with a positive outcome.

I’m aware in some cases people may not want to express their feelings and that not everybody will be convinced, I would like to use myself as an example in the fact that when I was homeless myself writing and performing poetry help myself to turn my life around and gave me a feeling of self-worth.
