The JTYAF is pleased to help a member of the Fire Cadets to begin drumming lessons.
He’s taught himself the basics and has a drum kit at home. His future ambition is to achieve a grade level 8 for drumming and potentially set up a band.
He’s a bright, positive and proactive member of the Dorchester-based Fire Cadets.
Good luck!
