Petition Details

Please could you help to keep Chetham’s School of Music open as we and other schools part of the Music and Dance program are facing a financial crisis. You could help 1000s of other children like me fulfill there dreams and help them have the best life and be who they want to be.

I would like the government to try and help as I feel as though they are the only people who could help with this matter as without funding, schools part of the music and dance program will start to close down within 12-18 months. Please sign this petition and help young, talented children shine.
