Our College

We use the arts as a tool to enable students to grow their personal development, cognitive and communication skills, and to achieve an overall sense of self-worth, pride, and confidence. All students choose a major subject to focus on when they join, and this currently includes drama, dance, music, creative arts, or film and media. To find out more whilst we are working on our website, you can download the prospectus below or you can email: enquiries@orpheus.org.uk

🙌 Donate today and help a student achieve their dreams!

Every student at the Orpheus Centre comes here with dreams and aspirations. Just as Sam did.

With the help of #Orpheus, Sam was able to join a leadership programme and make his dream of being a #dance teacher come true. He now has paid work at a dance studio - his students love him, he’s relishing being out in the world, and being recognised for his talents and skills. As he says, “I’m living my best life.”

We’re keen to support more students like Sam to achieve their dreams, but we need your help.

And any gift you can give today will support Double the Dreams, with your #donation being doubled at no extra cost to you.

£20 could be doubled to £40, meaning a student could receive two hours of practical #career advice and take that next step towards their goal.

Will you #DoubleTheDreams today?
