The Remix and The Premix are led by Artistic Director Aimee Hobbs. Aimee is a dance artist and has been working with the company for many years. She is a fantastic tutor, knowing intuitively how to challenge the children and young people yet at the same time ensuring they are supported every step of the way. We also invite theatre and music artists to lead workshops throughout the year, giving our young people a chance to enjoy other art forms.
The care support team is led by Care Manager Kayleigh Millett, who has worked with children and young people for over 10 years. The team have vast experience, many of whom work full-time as teaching assistants in special schools across the county. They all hold DBS enhanced certificates and an emergency first aider is present at all workshops.
