Message from CEO
We look forward to welcoming you to our Beckfoot Trust 10 Year celebration concert on the 7th of November 2023 at St George’s Hall. Tickets are available online at St George’s Hall’s website. This is a celebration of our young people for our young people.
Our trust was founded on strong principles of inclusivity and hope; you will see these, along with our organisational values of enjoy, learn, and succeed lived and breathed by our students and staff at our concert. For the first time ever, all 10 of our schools are represented on stage For many of our young people this is their first time on a stage; we know they are excited and nervous in equal measure.
Individual schools are performing their chosen pieces and there will be two collaborative pieces. Both collaborative pieces have been chosen to reflect positivity and our unswerving belief in applied hope; things will get better because we will make them so.
A lot of adults have gone to great efforts to make the concert a reality and we would greatly appreciate your support for the evening. You will be pleased to learn there will be no long speeches. We want your lasting memory of the evening to be of the people at the heart of our organisation, the children and young people of Beckfoot Trust.
Our schools have been moved by the current tragedy in the middle east. Our chosen charity is Save the Children, Donate to Gaza-Israel Crisis. Please donate on their website. They provide aid for children in Israel and Palestine.
– Shirley Watson (CEO)
