About Galli Galli Theatre Company
The Galli Galli Theatre Company, a part of Unity Portal, delivers project-based drama therapy for individuals facing past trauma, mental health challenges, or substance dependencies. Our free, peer-led activities use an asset-based approach to combat isolation, enhance wellbeing, and foster optimism. These interventions incorporate the Five Ways to Wellbeing: be active, connect, take notice, keep learning, and give, aiding in building Recovery Capital.
We offer "drop-in" creative activities like actor training, performance opportunities, volunteer work, peer mentoring, and support facilitation. Participants gain coping strategies and behavior changes to reduce loneliness, improve health, strengthen financial resilience, and reintegrate into the community. This supports the accumulation of Recovery Capital and helps prevent relapse.
Through personal, one-to-one Pastoral Care Support and Fast Paced Recovery coaches, we build rapport and explore complex issues, fostering new coping strategies. Our consistent engagement makes us a valued partner for treatment centers and substance abuse charities. Discover how we achieve this through projects like "Serenity".

Unique approach to community support
What sets the Galli Galli Theatre Company apart is our commitment to creating customized projects that directly address the needs of the communities we serve. Our members are often temporary, evolving from workshop attendees to project consultants as they develop the skills to share their stories and build coping strategies. This journey culminates in the creation of powerful performance pieces. We are also offering exciting projects that utilize the arts as a vehichle for personal development, and our organisation fits into the overall mission of Unity Portal perfectly.
