Then on to the performance of the 3rd @kinshipca Panto 2024 💕💕 The families absolutely smashed the performance of their co-written panto, Snow White and the Poison Sausage Roll. We are so proud of these children, who told their story of kinship care and had so much fun.

From there, @Cultural_Spring have been at our side, most recently supporting us through #Bitesize to develop our first musical- Sweet Caroline & the Football Boots-& inspiring us, through their work & approach. Thanks to the team and congrats on everything you’ve achieved 💕💕

Tonight we had the massive pleasure of performing as part of @Cultural_Spring’s 10th birthday party at @FireStationSun. Cultural Spring has been pivotal to WMC. Our first ever grant was from them via their Your Art programme, for Pop Choir Project. 🎶
