This is part of a larger project Amasing has secured funding for. Due to the pandemic AmaSing has had to adapt and change the way we operate. AmaSing is currently hosting/running online music, dance and singing workshops with 1000s of children in their school bubbles/classes in school and children at home due to the current restrictions. The pandemic has made it impossible for our theatre concerts that see 1000s of children participate take place and have been cancelled. Last September we hosted our first online concert which same approximately 6000 children attend via Zoom online. This remarkable figure was made up of school class bubbles from the northwest and abroad. Due to the success of the concert we are now planning to host the second concert online which will reach even more children and schools. Please note that the figures quoted in the Number of Beneficiaries section below has come from our previous show data and is for online attendance only.
