Our focus is to complement the UK education sector by improving the mental health and creativity of students using rap. We equip students with transferable skills that provide benefits inside and outside of the classroom through unique rap based activities, mentorship and practical applications.

Rap Therapy acts as an intervention for students and teach them to express how they feel through rap, which effectively gives students the tools which they can use from a young age. Rap Therapy also incorporates a mentoring programme, where students can talk with us about situations they may not feel comfortable telling teachers or parents. All our mentors have grown up in similar environments so we can relate to what we hear and come up with solutions to help the problem, offering an opportunity to the young people to talk about problems they experience and receive viable solutions.

Rap Therapy has worked with thousands of students all of who have different backgrounds. We have been able to make an impact in both London and Surrey through our workshops. We work with all students, including students who have in-class behaviour issues. Those who have attended workshops with behaviour issues have highly benefitted off of our programme as the students have been known to make positive changes and regain focus in the classrooms through the principles they learn in Rap Therapy workshops and mentoring sessions.

The Rap Therapy community allows us to plant good seeds in students’ and young peoples’ lives and inspire them into different fields, not just rap. We are not raising rappers, instead we are contributing to raising good members of civil society, through a relatable tool that my team and I have all personally used to develop good character and principles.

Here are (just a few) of the places that we have worked!
