End of Term Concert at Isledon Road

The Performance Skills Workshop is a regular class taking place every Thursday (11am) at Isledon Road MHRC. We ended the Winter term with a concert for the whole centre, two songs performed by each member of the class backed by the MfP Band and photographed by Tony Gay from the Islington Gazette. Many thanks to Jon Dean and Aimee Brannen and Tony for the help and coverage they’ve given us this year.
