About Us

What is PACT Creative Training?

PACT Creative operates on the premise that laughter is the best medicine.  It’s our mission to bring the restorative power of play into every aspect of life, and in particular to introduce benefits of play into the workplace environment; helping to support wellbeing, a sense of connection and great team/client relationships. PACT stands for Play, Act, Create, Transform.

Jess Shaw

Jess is the founder of PACT Creative Training. Jess uses humour, play and improvisation as tools for transformative sessions offering support around themes such as Team Building, wellbeing, confidence building and conflict resolution. Jess has over 20 years’ experience working with adults, children and young people in a wide range of settings including companies, charities, schools, prisons, youth centres, alternative education provisions and universities. Jess is a true believer in using fun and playfulness in order to create a safe space to share and learn.

What People Say

  • Thank you Jessica Shaw @ PACT for facilitating such an amazing experience. What a way to spend a morning with colleagues; LAUGHING, a lot. We all had a great time, feel less stressed and even closer as a team. I wish we’d done this sooner and I’m already being asked when you’re coming in again! Sharing this because I think the work you do is awesome and strongly recommend other teams/companies give it a go

Always a pleasure to offer a joyful experience to those taking care of others - primary school staff much in need of a #wellbeing boost. There's nothing like a fast-paced game to bring squeals of delight, bring us into the moment & back to ourselves.

Such a privilege to work on @GroundswellArts Sing Our Story project, to have families share their stories & unique family moments with me for a song. Playing the songs back I feel the power of the arts & how impactful it is to be listened to & reflected back with positive regard.

Groundswell Arts @GroundswellArts

Jess was visiting Honeycombs Nursery this week to share songs co-written with parents for their children this is always such a positive and emotional moment when parents hear their words and sentiments put to music
