Leeds came alive for 2 very special days. Big thanks to our performers, their teachers, our volunteers and the partner organisations. Dance is alive and kicking in schools - we just give it the platform it deserves.

An all too rare opportunity to discuss all things culture, arts, learning and partnerships. We’ll be represented in the morning panel discussion.

Sad to hear about the passing of Benjamin Zephaniah. A wonderful spirit. A masterful poet, musician, creative & an advocate for young people, creativity & the arts. This tribute to creativity came out of a project that Colin was privileged to be a part of.youtu.be/fI9vDzGhZDY?si…
