Our services
At Tender, we design and deliver creative services that engage children, young people and adults in healthy relationships education. Our wide range of programmes are tailored to each individual setting, embedding kindness, inclusion and respect throughout whole communities and organisations.
Schools & youth programmes
Our programmes prepare and empower young people to have healthy relationships and to support and signpost their peers. We work with primary, secondary and specialist schools, as well as a variety of youth settings, alternative provisions and community groups.

Our work in higher education settings equips staff and students to build respectful, inclusive communities. We deliver engaging, interactive programmes in which participants deepen their understanding of domestic abuse and sexual violence, and how to prevent these issues on campus.
Read moreWhy our work is needed
Domestic abuse and sexual violence remain significant problems throughout the UK. Tender’s creative and interactive services work across whole communities to promote healthy relationships and empower people of all ages to prevent abuse.
Why use drama?
Tender’s drama-based activities enable people of all ages to engage safely with sensitive topics, develop empathy and ‘rehearse’ for different scenarios. This approach creates a safe, supportive environment where people can develop and practise the skills to build healthy relationships, challenge harmful ones, and promote respect, compassion and equality.
