Yesterday we dropped a magical workshop inside Punchdrunk Enrichment with Yomi Sode exclusively for #BYOB Poetry crew in Wembley.

Facilitation space is such an overlooked pillar of informal education, this spot was gorgeous

Proud to finally share our big Youth Music report 'Industry Connect' on the state of Music Education. This is one of the most comprehensive pieces of research of recent years and offers a radical rethink. The feedback has been amazing. Have you read it yet?

This is me giving my Blue Steel to tell you I'm dropping a keynote talk in Manchester this Saturday.

This year I co-led a Youth Music report abt creative careers, music education & the 'industry'. We spoke to 280 ppl, it was inspiring, revealing & urgent
