THROWBACK! It’s been a year to the day since our first event in Sheffield - our launch party in August 2022 - featuring @thecocouk + @iamlamour_ , @bangbangromeo, @bloom_sheffield_ , @harri_larkin, and @lilyknott feat. @kaynceemusic. Since then we held open days at the wonderful @sidneyandmatilda, worked hard building the Sheffield campus, and then had our official opening party in April 2023, featuring Coco cutting the ribbon, @iamadmt, Harri Larkin, @kid_blu3e, and @yourvoicenotes.
The final date of importance is 18th September - when we officially open our Sheffield campus doors to YOU, our first cohort!
See you soon Sheffield.
