The youngest child is 5 and the eldest is 16.  The ethics are that no child should be excluded from the opportunity of group music making by inability to pay, and many of the children receive free tuition through a means tested scholarship scheme supported by Bournemouth Rotary, the Mayor's Charity and other generous funders. Individuals also sponsor scholarships. One child has won a place at the Yehudi Menuhin School, some beneficiaries aged under 14, are now studying towards grade 8.Unfortunately, after 6 years of life, the money has run out and this project is endangered. Free concert, retiring collection on behalf of CFO.
