DRILLING DIAMONDS

Drilling Diamonds is a drama, music and film project working with young people across multiple London Boroughs.

The project began in Tower Hamlets in 2020 and was shortlisted for Children & Young People Now Art & Culture Award. Drilling Diamonds came to Lewisham as part of London borough of culture in the summer of 2022. In 2025, Drilling Diamonds expanded to include in-school programmes across Newham borough as part of the government’s SAFE Taskforce initiative. Soon, Drilling Diamonds will begin work at Shooters Hill Sixth Form College.
