Make an impact
CCS, offering outstanding value for money, relies entirely on a donation basis, and it costs £17,000 a year to run. We do not charge any child, as our purpose is reaching those who cannot afford high quality arts. Donations can be made on Saturdays in the hall (we have card facilities) or here.
Volunteer
We need regular help with administrative tasks, and front-of-house support greeting children and parents and signing them in, as well as making refreshments for sessions. We are also keen to hear from anyone who’d like to volunteer to help children learn particular instruments from scratch. You would not have to commit to coming every week, but we would work out a rota to suit you and ensure you were confident in what you had been asked to do. You need to be over 16 and will need to either supply an original Enhanced DBS certificate from another organisation and be registered with the update service, or be willing to fill in the necessary documentation for a Enhanced DBS check.
