Access Newsletter – July 2023

We have an exciting opportunity for YOU!

Are you 15+, living with a disability and would love to become a DJ, we are now on the lookout for new participants for our Energy train project, starting again in September.

Energy Train is a free 6-week course at the Millennium Forum where you will learn DJ skills from Oliver Brown and Silver Fox Entertainment Dj Compere Kevin Boyle. Upon completion, you'll even get a chance to showcase your talent at our monthly Energy of Light discos.

If you are interested in taking part or have any questions about the course please contact Lisa Heaney on lisah@millenniumforum.co.uk

Celebrating Achievements - Certificate presentation - June 2023

It's been a journey of passion, dedication, and limitless possibilities. Group 1 and Group 2 participants, you have shown us the true power of music and the strength within each of you!

But the magic doesn't stop there! Our Memory Train program has been a remarkable DJ Training experience for older individuals, reminding us that age is just a number when it comes to pursuing our passions.

We commend every single one of you for your determination, growth, and unwavering spirit. Let this moment be a reminder that there are no boundaries when it comes to pursuing your dreams and creating meaningful connections through the power of music.
