Fantastic news from Loose over in Halton - they've secured funding for four youth music worker posts. Loose took over the near-derelict Queens Hall Studio after it closed in 2004. They have now secured all the funding and are nearing completion on building repairs.

Jaki Florek says they'll be looking for four inspirational and enthusiastic people who have a varied range of abilities, skills and experience. The 20 hour posts will require evening and weekend working to support young people in a variety of activities, including performances and gigs.

Further details about the posts will be available from November 2nd on their website at www.loosemusic.org

With big thanks to the funders: The Community Assets Fund, Big Lottery Fund (YPL), Grassroots, LNF, WREN, HVA, and Halton Council.
