WHO ARE WE?
Access For All
We are a group of volunteers who are members of The Arts Society Nadder Valley. We have formed a dedicated group to create an arts programme that covers a broad range of arts ranging from music, theatre, comic design, to sculpture photography, painting and everything in-between and that is accessible to all young people across the Nadder Valley.
Matthew Burt Furniture have very generously agreed to sponsor us for three years and the Arts Society Nadder Valley has also provided funding.
See below for our plans for the future once we are free from lockdown due to Covid and how to contact the Young Arts team, led by Debbie Cockrean.
