We have been looking back over the things we've done in 2010.
Although it's been a quiet-ish year for us, in the past 12 months we've worked in partnership with, or for:
- Somerset Community Directorate (l.d. services)
- Strata Collective
- Fiveways School in Yeovil
- Take Art / Step Changes project
- Merlin theatre, Frome
- Creative Learning Agency
- Somerset County Council (Flux festival)
- Heathfield Community school, Taunton
- Spaeda (Somerset)
- Millfield School
- Mencap
- Wells Cathedral junior school
- Kids South West
Plus, had a lot of fun and some awesome music at the round sound sessions.
Here's feedback from some of our participants in 2010:
- ‘The workshop really engaged a group of really challenging youngsters. All of the group were involved, enjoyed the activities, and ACHIEVED! Our youngsters would really benefit from regular drumming sessions.’
- ‘The control of the very disparate group was awesome. Everyone entered in to the spirit in their own way. Leaders were so encouraging, affirming everybodies’ contribution.’
- ‘The music made me feel really happy’
- ' The staff and service users love coming to your sessions, it's been a real success, THANK YOU xxxxxxx '
- ' Very cool '
Our aims for 2011 include a relaunch of the website; developing links to the east of the region - Wiltshire; working to establish live music making sessions for young adults with learning disabilities in transition.

Happy New Year!
