Trustees thank Friend Steven Burkeman for his support of this charity, which remains close to many of our hearts. We were pleased to fund a creative, interactive music project at The Dales School, Blyth, for primary-aged children with complex special educational needs and disabilities.
Trustees applauded the work of Clowndoctors and Elderflowers — highly trained arts practitioners who combined musicality, performance, and sensitivity in their support of children with physical and cognitive disabilities. Their activities — from bubble-blowing games to gentle lullabies — supported not just the children, but whole families.
Trustees were delighted to receive the application to perform The Wellies to over 1,650 young people with SEND in 30 performances across 22 venues including schools, theatres, and public locations in London, Snape Maltings, Saffron Walden, Buxton, Chester, Poole, and Exeter. Your earlier production The Big Red Moon was highly praised, and Trustees were confident your new work brought joy to many.
