BANBURY: A music project between a youth charity and Cherwell District Council ended on a high note this month.

Cherwell District Council worked with BYHP (Supporting Young People in Housing Need) on the Talent Revival music software and technology course.

Those who took part were aged 16 to 25 and have been helped with housing needs by the homeless charity. They worked with musician Simon Hill on the project.

John Donaldson, lead member for Banbury Brighter Futures on the council, said: “Together with BYHP we have determined that music would be a good way to reach and engage with them.

“Arts projects are effective in helping people learn skills, develop opportunities, grow in confidence and take on new challenges.”
