As you can see, we've had a makeover! As we transfer to a new email system, you may like to check the information we have for you is correct. We're soon going to start sending out two monthly emails, one with information about events at Cecil Sharp House and in London, and another with information about events around the country. If you update your details, we can make sure we're sending you the information of most interest to you.
