‘Dancing feels like you’re finally unleashing the secret you have been holding and now you’re happy to give it out.’ ❤️🩰 Did you know we work with nearly 100,000 children every year? Our Schools programme inspires creativity by giving school children free access to the arts and the chance to express themselves through music and dance 🎶🎭 As a charity, we rely on donations to make sure we can continue to work with children from across the United Kingdom who have never experienced the joy of ballet and opera. This week, as part of the Big Give, all donations given in support of our Schools programme are being doubled!   Find out more and donate today: https://lnkd.in/gr3D7PgU
