02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Our charity organises and runs music, speech and dance competitions for children and adults, solo and groups, locally. We invite adjudicators, accredited by the British and International Federation of Festivals, to judge the classes, give encouragement and constructive criticism of the performances heard, and award (where appropriate) prizes and trophies to winners, as well as certificates to participants, We also employ 2 piano accompanists to provide support to those requiring them. A concert on the final day of the festival celebrates the performers' achievements.
