At the heart of English folk

We are committed to providing opportunities for young people to learn and get inspired about folk music, dance and song!
We run the London Youth Folk Ensemble and a programme of holiday courses which reach young people from across London and beyond.

Run for young people by young people! Play tunes, sing songs and share your favourite music.
