We have just completed the ‘Intensity’ project at Lostock College which has lasted roughly two terms. The students have really enjoyed the project and have been able to express their views and opinions which they would normally struggle to express in a normal classroom lesson. The students have learnt different skills for example spray painting and graffiti and they have been able to experience working as part of a team to finish the project. The students have discussed serious and dangerous topics through an informal setting, which I feel has increasing the learning of this group. The group struggle to stay focused on tasks but they have all enjoyed participating and have all completed something towards the book giving them a sense of achievement and belonging to the project. I would love if this project could run again next year, the progress made has been much more than just educational and students are proud of their work.
At 14 my son began to get into trouble at school, would be absent from home, smoking cannabis and getting into fights. The day I found a knife in his bedroom my world fell apart. Six months on and I have my beautiful son back. I can honestly say without Darryl’s dedication and effort, we may have been in a very different situation. Having Darryl on side from the very start I believe, made significant advancements in turning around the change. This intervention was only made possible through #Terminology project supporting Darryl in this role. Thank you to them for helping to facilitate this work.
Terminology Live Great gig last night...still so much amazing music going on in Manchester.Big up to Lisa Ellis for organisng, all the artists and all those who helped to make it happen. Wouldn't normally single anyone out as everyone smashed it but a special mention to the Katana twins Millie and Hope who in my humble opinion have everything to be one of the biggest acts in the world. Off the scale. Check them out. Steve Rigby – Urban superstars , MCR Superstars ,Jah wobble
Lea Mullen I don’t say this lightly it was a joy to play with you guys Simon Moore, Luke Smith,Steve Rigby we all do lots of gigs and sessions everywhere but that was as good as anything I’ve ever done - love you guys ! I’m also lucky to have you all as friends - big up to lisa Ellis also for the heart and soul and total belief in every artist she puts forward all the band appreciates you and all your hard work x Lea Mullen – George Michael percussionist
So last night.. err a proper treat. #terminology now what i thought was going to be a little chat with some artists ended up being one of the best shows I've seen to date by local talent. Cherry on the cake was #katanas #ohmylife #neverhaveiseenover60yrsplusofrealnaturaltalent they both took the venue to church, with a baptism of pure fire, then bust out the doors shutting out the light after them. Clearly on the bucket list... well done to Lisa Ellis these chicas are off the dam scale.. x Julie Gordon - Vocalist Happy Mondays
Lisa Ellis I love this woman she is amazing thanks for everything, for all your help, helping young artists like myself from urban superstars and all the other projects you have done and let me be involved in thankyou. I am so grateful see you very soon 😚😚❤ Tasmin B - Artist
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Lisa Ellis “Brink “who has always supported me with my music since day one. So glad that you asked me to get involved in the Terminology project you have set up. As i have had a long break from music. Being involved in recording music has made me fall in love with music again. Mina Platnum - Award winning songwriter / vocalist
Brink productions have completed a project working with a group of Year 10 girls who have benefitted enormously. They have written a story about self esteem, bullying and how people judge appearances. They have covered issues from home and how these can impact on school life. They also discussed what constitutes a positive and a negative relationship. The young people were directed to resources to support them both inside and outside of school.
I enjoyed this session because I felt the staff were very supportive and helped to boost our self esteem
We worked on our self esteem and made something that could help other people work on theirs
I enjoyed it because I could express my feelings without being judged by other people
