Targeted Health Outreach Film Club
Service details
Who are we?
Targeted Health Outreach Service is a small team that supports young people aged 14 to 19 with disabilities in Hackney. The team works with young people who are not eligible for social care services or adult disability services, to improve their health and well-being.
We work in partnership with other services to support mental well-being and independence through social activities like FILM Club which is run in conjunction with MTR (Mouth That Roars) a local film-focused organisation.
Find out about other Targeted Health Outreach projects, clubs, and opportunities here.
What do we do?
Targeted Health Outreach Film Club is run in partnership with the youth media charity ‘Mouth that Roars’. This monthly group is for autistic/neurodiverse young people aged 14-19 with a love for film. It’s a good opportunity to meet other people who share your interest and socialise in a low-pressure environment.
Targeted Health Outreach Film Club meets once a month at Mouth That Roars, a local film project, to do a fun film quiz and then watch a film chosen by young people in the group. After the film, we talk about what we thought of it.
It is a chance to meet other people and practice social skills in a relaxed and friendly setting. Targeted Health Outreach Film Club is free and drinks and popcorn are provided.
What do young people who go think about the Film Club?
"It took a while for me to get used to Mouth That Roars itself. It started from just the Hackney Ark film club at the end of the month and then it slowly gradually turned into more...It just helped that I got to know who the people were and also that ok, it’s going to be different things each week but I know it’s going to be film related. I think the main thing is that I know the people now. Having a similar sort of thing to do does help and I do enjoy doing it. And I enjoy being there."
What do you enjoy doing most? "Going to Mouth That Roars. I love that place."
Is there any enhanced support for young people attending the Film Club?
The Film Club at Mouth That Roars is a very inclusive and supportive environment.
Targeted Health Outreach Team may be able to support you with travel training and becoming more independent.
This is also an opportunity to get support from Targeted Health Outreach workers about any other issues that you might be worrying about.
