COVID-19 Updates
In response to the government’s roadmap out of lockdown, we are running face-to-face music activities which are managed and risk-assessed to be COVID secure. See all our activities by visting our what we do section.
We have worked very hard on making sure our health and safety guidelines around returning to work with COVID-19 comply with government advice and all projects have a thorough risk assessment in place. View our COVID safety guidelines here.
