Merchant Taylors’ Speaker Series welcomes the Co-Founders of the RAP Project
The Schools were delighted to welcome Deana Puccio and Allison Havey, Co-Founders of the RAP Project, to talk to boys from years 9 – Upper Sixth, girls from year 10, staff and parents in a number of bespoke presentations on Tuesday 12th September.
The RAP Project (Raising Awareness and Prevention Project) was set up by Deana and Allison to provide a variety of programmes to pre-teens, teenagers, young adults, teachers and parents to raise awareness about personal safety issues on and off line. These age appropriate presentations included Body Image (Years 9 and 10), Social Skills for Life (Years 11 and 12) and ‘The Big Leap to University’ for our Upper Sixth Form. Our teenagers seemed visibly relieved to discuss these somewhat ‘taboo’ issues and share back what makes them feel vulnerable and anxious. Amanda and Allison then worked this feedback into their presentations, along with the latest statistics, their own surveys and quotes from other students.
