We're doing a week-long folk summerschool this year, Dick, to be delivered by Shooting Roots, and we're very excited by it. The age range is 12 - 18, so slightly higher than the age we normally target. Some subsidy we've managed to secure means we can offer a whole week of activity for just £35 per child. Tuition will be both vocal and instrumental.

It's an opportunity for kids whose parents might not have the time or money to take them to a big festival to still benefit from the same kind of learning opportunity.

In the autumn, funding permitting, we're hoping to launch a more long-term folk music project in schools. In the past we've concentrated mostly on dance; now we want to look more at playing and singing.
