Testimonials from Pause practitioners 

I really enjoyed working with you both – the theatre project was the best group project we did  – and I’ve been around for 7 years – the whole of Pause Islington’s duration in fact.

Kathy Hobson, Pause Practitioner, Safeguarding and Family Support, Children, Employment and Skills, April 2023

IPT's current project Sheroes is being run in collaboration with Response Ability Theatre, in conjunction with Pause: Space for Change working with women from within the borough of Islington.

'The women involved with Pause are all currently working with, or are ‘graduates’ of the Pause service and are some of the most vulnerable in the borough: 71% have suffered domestic violence; 98% have drug or alcohol dependency; 51% experienced homelessness; 49% have grown up in the care system and 35% have had involvement with the Criminal Justice System' (Pause website, 2022).

We are delighted to have been awarded Arts Council funding for this project!
