Project Eileen CIO Details
A multimedia programme for UK secondary schools to help young people tackle the topic of death and grief. The format, combining a powerful story, animation and music, available in either a Recorded Version or a Do-It-Yourself Version, serves as a springboard for five lessons which open up the conversation and develop discussion on this taboo subject. The charity aims to:RAISE AWARENESS. By normalising the topic of death, it is anticipated young people will find themselves in a better position to deal with any loss they will one day encounter, sometimes unexpectedly.ADDRESS THE STIGMA. For those who have not yet encountered death in their lives, it is hoped they will discover ways to respond to their friends who have been bereaved. In the future, this knowledge will enable them to offer support to colleagues, friends and relatives.COMBAT ISOLATION. For young people who have been affected by death already in their lives, it hoped it will help to reduce loneliness and feelings of isolation.BUILD RESILIENCE. By opening up the subject it seeks to help build resilience and prevent the development of mental health issues and complications which may result from bereavement and grief. Crucially it aims to encourage peer support.BOOST CREATIVITY. The decline of arts education in secondary schools with the loss of lesson time, staff and facilities denies young people the restorative qualities creativity can bring to mental and physical health. The Do-It-Yourself Version will be instrumental in helping to address this by giving young people multiple creative opportunities including narration, singing, playing musical instruments and other opportunities such as design, lighting and technical. By giving young people the power to work and create something together a community spirit is encouraged.
