Thanks to Department for Culture, Media and Sport & Arts Council England, South West for the invite to Buckingham Palace’s Garden Party to represent Paraorchestra at the celebration of the UK’s Creative Industries. A surreal, lovely day out at the palace and a great chance to meet up with colleagues from across the country.
