MUSIC FOR YOUTH CHARITY

That this House congratulates Music for Youth on its 40-year anniversary; praises the educational charity for the opportunities it has offered to 2.3 million young people in that time through its regional festivals, the annual National Festival in Birmingham and the Schools Prom at London's Royal Albert Hall; welcomes its plans to expand its already impressive annual reach of 100,000 performers and audience members; and wishes the charity many more years of success.
