Our staff

Our work wouldn’t be possible without the united efforts of our behind-the-scenes team. 

Together with a network of specialist teachers, performers, practitioners and volunteers who lead our workshops, events and activities, our staff ensure the charity is forward-thinking and continually adapting to the changing needs of children and young people.
