Just a little update… Well, it’s early days. I’ve been trying to get out there, meet people, basically just let people know that I am here, explain a bit about what Gloucestershire Music Forum is all about and what my role will be (kind of improvising that bit at the moment - thank goodness i studied jazz!) It seems that the guy who runs Riffs music shop in Stroud is setting up ‘Stroud Music Community’, so hoping to engage in some partnership working with him. Met a cool young guy by the name of Sam, 12 years old and hugely talented singer and guitarist, who would like to get involved- i want to set up a Stroud Youth Music Forum and also want some youth advisors.  And following up some other leads with Stroud District Council, Stroud District Youth Council and Youth Services… Busy bee - got to fly! Bye for now.
