A fashion label is launching an arts programme in schools across Yorkshire.
The Burberry Foundation aims to understand how deep experience of the arts can have a positive effect on young people’s lives.
The impact of the four-year long programme will be studied by researchers from the Policy Institute at King’s College London, who will examine how cultural and creative education can help young people to transcend challenging circumstances and realise their aspirations.
The ‘Burberry Inspire’ programme will be delivered in eight schools in Yorkshire in partnership with Leeds Playhouse, Leeds Young Film, Northern Ballet and The Hepworth Wakefield.
