Super proud of the whole Young Musicians Project team (esp my missus) and of YMP alumnus Isabel Maria, who won cute little wooden trophies at #necultureawards last night. They made it happen by slogging away, embracing their community and always trying to make it good. 😘

Nice night at #NECultureAwards and for the second year on the trot seeing Laurels as a finalist for Best Museum/ Cultural venue.

Testimony to silly hard work from our team in the hardest ever times doing this.

It was absolutely great to be among the best of the North East's cultural and creative community last night for the #NECultureAwards - a real sense that this region's moment has arrived www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-e...
