GREETINGS FROM MARGATE!

Welcome to episode 6 of Buddy’s Buddies!

Good day to you all - thank you ever so kindly for joining!


Ladies and gentlemen, a goody for you this week… I’ve known Ollie for a while here in Margate, and all the while he’s been working super hard on the AEE project from crowd funding to initiating sessions for young people to create amazing work, and alongside Sarah and Kim, AEE has become an ultra positive shining ray of light there on Northdown Road for creative youths here in Margate to engage in. It’s so important that they have a chance to realise their creativity and skill in a place like this, which works on finding their strengths and interests, while providing an equal footing and agency in their own paths.


You’ll hear it all, from how it started to where it was to where it is today, and Ollie is a great voice to talk about it all - you can hear that enthusiasm and spark, and pure confidence in the project which is really coming into its own. It’s still young but already they’ve helped a huge amount of young people in the Kent area find their voices and make music, artwork and film which has then been released to the world. Really exciting stuff. I hope you enjoy this one - thanks as always, hope you dig!
