Music In Our Bones
Spreading joy through music throughout the pandemic
"In September 2020, thanks in part to your funding, and whilst 6 people could meet outdoors, we were able to offer 18 tiny outdoors sings whilst the weather held. This allowed us to reach people unable any longer to get out easily (or at all) by taking our singing to them.

People's delight at actually seeing one another again in person was tangible and often emotional, isolation being suddenly overcome. Having an event to look forward to was much valued and everyone spoke of the joy of hearing voices raised in harmony together again.
We hope you enjoy watching what The Tudwick Foundation's funding has made possible."
