Luke Salter, 17, applied for the Kick Start Fund and was successful in getting £250 to contribute towards the cost of drum lessons. Funding covered a total of ten drum lessons to help Luke improve his drumming ability.
“I’ve learnt more in the 10 lessons than I have in 2 years of playing the drums,” says Luke who is keen to pursue his passion and interest in drumming. "The teacher listened to what I wanted to learn and the lessons have inspired me to keep playing.”
