We are a group of young people that participate in interactive creative media workshops led by experts in the field. We formed in 2011 as a group of Restless Development volunteers eager to develop our creative media skills and now meet up in London on a number of Saturdays throughout the year for a free, fun filled day of creativity- keep an eye out for up and coming dates.
