Story
We run participatory music (and other arts) projects for young people and community groups. We have been doing this for 17 years, for the last 4 of which we have had use of our own studios. We are being hampered in our plans to run more projects for more young people as a couple of our rooms need re-organising and restructuring- and must be soundproofed (which is expensive) due to the nature of our work.

Thank you so much for all your generosity. We would also like to thank the people who have donated separately to the crowdfunding. We are having the works done, and they will be a significant improvement to the premises and our continued commitment to providing quality community arts projects, courses and activities for young people (some of whom pictured rocking out at our 'Access All Areas' gig at Korks last term) and all ages of the local community. We will be continuing with our fundraising as we still have a large proportion of the costs to cover. We hope our commitment to Otley community and to children and young people is some repayment for all your kindness and comments.
