Act On Info regularly work with organisations such as charities, businesses and community groups to deliver important educational messages to young people. We have run short or long term projects and are happy to lead or collaborate on funding applications, coordination, delivery and feedback of the project.

Take a look at our current and previous projects below.
Linnaeus – The Man Who Named Plants
We are currently working on a project with Plymouth University to educate Year 6 pupils on Linnaeus – a Swedish botanist, physician, and zoologist, who formalised the modern system of naming organisms called binomial nomenclature. He is known by the epithet “father of modern taxonomy”. This interesting chap named and classified most of our plants and animals and was a very fascinating character to boot! The pilot project will run in September 2017 and we are currently searching for an actor / scientist for the project.

Free 2 Choose
This project was a collaboration between Act On Info and:
- The Forced Marriage Unit of the government – funding body.
- Stockport Without Abuse (SWA) – a registered charity dealing with domestic abuse, forced marriage and sexual exploitation.
- Inspire Safer Futures – a training company empowering people to make positive and safe choices in their lives.
- Sameem Ali – lead on forced marriage in the city of Manchester, patron to Stockport Without Abuse, and forced marriage survivor.
The project involved a series of training and drama workshops in high schools around Manchester. Young people were given the opportunity to creatively playback this learning to their year group enabling a wider audience of young people to gain knowledge and understanding of this subject. Staff training to support the teaching of consent in marriage across schools and colleges of higher learning was also delivered in various schools.
The culmination of the project was the Free 2 Choose conference for young people held in an arts venue in Manchester. The conference included prominent speakers, performances by young people and a forum theatre workshop Promise Me – delivered by Act On Info.

The Free 2 Choose project ran for two years and reached hundreds of young people across Manchester, we will be continuing this vital work on in the future in the North West and other areas of the country.
