"I have been coming to Voices of the Vale since the very first day. I was just 5 years old. I am now 13 and cannot remember or imagine life without Voices of the Vale. It is somewhere I can always be myself and I always have friends. I have learnt so much and it's helped me to be brave enough to perform in front of an audience. I love that we get to go on trips and weekends away. Voices of the Vale is family to me."
