Ahead of the event, Dr Katy Peters held a workshop in our Court of the Future on Saturday 8 June with GSC鈥檚 youth drama group.
The Peter Harrison Foundation has provided funding for a series of films and teaching materials to be used in outreach work as part of Guildford Cathedral鈥檚 Knife Angel legacy. These will be launched on 3 July.
Katy said: 鈥淲e are delighted to be able to participate in this important event, in collaboration with such inspirational partners. The theatre of a courtroom creates an innovative teaching space. The scenarios explored in our -inspired workshops offer a powerful illustration of the catastrophic impact which violent and thoughtless decisions can have on both the victims of crime, and those whose actions cause harm, injury and death.鈥
