Story

Since 2015 dozens of young people have been a part of our groundbreaking programme providing importsnt social and communicative skills for our members. A parent of one of our members put it beautifully when she said My son is usually excluded or asked to leave most extracurricular activities he wants to be a part of. With the Venus Blazing Music Trusts music and theatre skills sessions at the Park Theatre, Finsbury Park, he is understood and included and given a chance for his creative and social skills to flourish.
