Detailed Description

DJ FACTORY is a programme from the Bubble Club supporting learning disabled DJs to learn to use DJ equipment and perform live at Bubble Club events and other mainstream venues. This programme aims to create career pathways for many learning-disabled people who do not otherwise have employment options. We are looking for volunteers to join our team supporting DJ workshops and live gigs as this project grows and we begin to work with more venues. This project would suit people with existing DJ skills and a passion for supporting learning disabled, neuro-diverse people, and those from marginalised communities.

Time Commitment

We expect volunteers to be available for a minimum of 2 sessions out of a 6-session cycle, in order to build meaningful relationships with students. Workshops take place on Tuesdays 1-4pm at Crate Brewery, Hackney Wick. We have live gigs at this venue every other week. We also have gigs at our own club nights taking place 6 times per year at 93 Feet East, Brick Lane. We are hoping to open up this programme to more venues in the coming months. Reaching out to venues could be another volunteer task if this is of interest. We also hope to pair individual DJs and learners to grow a long-lasting relationship where they can support a new DJ getting to new venues, setting up and delivering live gigs.
