The Perdiswell Young People’s Leisure Club in Worcester, was packed full of pupils and staff to watch ‘Who Cares?’
The event began with a speech from headteacher Kay Hamilton, then Dan Lloyd read out a poem written by Ashleigh Jones. After watching the film and the behind the scenes documentary, the audience had the opportunity to pass on their thoughts and feelings about the production by writing comments on the ‘scrawl wall’.
Choices
by Ashleigh Jones
Choices, choices
Which one to make?
Choices, choices
Affect your fate
What is fate? Is it my choice?
Should I speak out with my voice?
Is it good? Is it bad?
Other people’s choices make me sad
Some choices I make, make me happy inside
I feel I could burst and have no reason to hide
I don’t need to drink to hide my pain
I have choices to make all the same
I will make the right choice, believe me I will
I just need to take some time off to have fun and chill
