On Monday, we braved Storm Franklin and headed to the Post Mill Centre in South Normanton with 14 Young Carers. Sam and James from Rock Steady brought guitars, microphones, keyboards and drums and spent the day turning our fab Young Carers into two awesome bands, Elephant at the Pizza Disco and Black Cats!

The kids were amazing, they worked together and tried out different instruments.

Their perseverance was outstanding!

Huge thanks to Rock Steady for leading this activity and to the Post Mill for putting up with the noise.
