"One thing we (Kirkby Fleetham Folk Club) are doing though is sponsoring kids from the local school(s) to enter the Wensleydale Tournament of song. There is a junior class for unaccompanied traditional song.

This year there is only one entry (which is a tragedy) we have an aim of getting a minmum of 10 entries next year (including my daughter!). We'll do this by the club paying the entry fee and working with 3 or 4 of the local schools to identify potentially interested kids and give them some coaching."

Hopefully the Jim Moray "debate" has died down no. So I'll try again.

Anyone else working with under 12's to try and ensure trad (& broader folk) song has a future?
