Clear Out Your Closet
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
Host your event in our 17th Century Barn Theatre with all the facilities you will need for a great event.
Do you need to improve your understanding of disability in the workplace? Our experienced and qualified staff can help you.
Situated within the lovely rural gardens of the Orpheus Centre, the Arts Café is a student-led enterprise that caters to students, staff, and events throughout the year.
This student-led group has the knowledge and real-life experience to help you provide the best workplace experience possible.

Book a truly spectacular performance by the students. We’re extremely lucky to have talented people who are available to take part in public events.
Equality and making a difference is important to the Students who design and sell merchandise like T-shirts.
The students deliver engaging and interactive theatre experiences to local schools and communities.
The Students lead a range of activities for children onsite at Orpheus for our staff, and go out to a local nursery for work experience.

🍭 Our student Marketing group recently had the opportunity to visit Agency jellybean, who specialise in food and drink #marketing.
The group participated in interactive activities where they explored #branding and design to develop their understanding of how marketing works. The session was a fantastic insight into the professional world of advertising and marketing.
Thank you to jellybean for this experience (and the brilliant #orpheus branded jellybeans!) 🙏 ... See MoreSee Less
