My wife is in a small #orchestra (NULCO: Newcastle-under-Lyme Community Orchestra) and they have a chance to get a grant which would make a huge difference for them. Please help by voting, and by sharing the link.
They have #musicians of all ages and abilities, and play for the love of sharing #music.

So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal"
