Laughter, smiles and tears in their eyes... ❤️ We were really moved today to read this blog by @callumgiven on @HomelessImpact about the powerful arts and homelessness collaboration between @asmforchestra and @homelesslondon. This is the kind of project we should all be shouting about 🤩 homelessnessimpact.org/news/…

In a world where it’s so easy to get pulled into the constant delivery of projects, it felt great to spend today reflecting on @BrittenSinfonia’s Opus programmes and work with teachers to devise an exciting pilot programme for this summer. Expertly facilitated by @CallumGiven 💜
