“Creative expression is the road to wellbeing”

I can’t recommend the work of Naomi Bedford and Paul Simmons highly enough. 

I have found them to be true collaborators on the Sea Folk Sing scheme and fantastic facilitators of the folk song workshops. 

They are able to work with participants from across a wide range of levels in terms of their song-writing skills and confidence and manage to keep everyone involved in the process.

On a practical level – I have found them to be 100% reliable, great communicators and very responsive to the different needs of the project. 

As creators – they have added great insights into the themes of truth and reconciliation through music-making, they are generous in their skills sharing and I very much hope to be able to work with them again.
