I see you're in Kent but the Edinburgh Harp Festival each Easter is well worth a visit. Teachers and harpists from all round the world attend. Great craic, wonderful lessons, workshops and concerts.
Janet Bennett from Northumberland is a superb teacher and, of course the festival scene provides opportunities to make contacts.
I agree with Bonnie (who inspired me when I saw you at festivals some time ago- thank you), learn how to get your fingers working then play any style you like. There's a lot of good material out there.
