In just 1 week @Becswhitehurst and I will be walking the 186 mile @PembsCoast path for @CureParkinsonsT. We’re hoping it’s going to take just over 2 weeks walking between 8.5 and 17.5 miles a day. Please sponsor us! Thank you so much☺️

[Lily Whitehurst @whitehurst_lily]

This was such a good one with @BBCPhilharmonic - the roar from the audience at the end brought tears to my eyes 🥰 Nothing quite compares to the sound a @bbcproms audience can make!

Setting the @RoyalAlbertHall ablaze! Another amazing @bbcproms concert tonight with conductor Mark Wigglesworth, the superb pianist @houghhough and a world premiere by @G_E_Mason as well as celebrating @rncmlive’s 50th anniversary.

Happy 50th Birthday @rncmlive! 🥳 It’s brought me so much joy coming back as an alumna to play with the students this week, and to be chosen as one of the RNCM50 faces is just such an honour. Thank you so, so much!

It's becoming increasingly apparent that there has been a concerted attempt by BBC execs to strategically weaken the ensembles over the past 12 months, and pave the way for these cuts to have as little internal resistance as possible

[Lily Whitehurst @whitehurst_lily]

Absolutely awful news today 😢

BBC Singers to close in corporation’s ‘major review of classical music’ https://t.co/jo5kpRmB6K

[Declan Kennedy @declankkennedy]

In many ways though it’s a grim day for the arts: seeing cultural decimation delivered in such harsh economic terms after 12 years of chronic underfunding. Solidarity to the creative community across the country ✊🏻

[Declan Kennedy @declankkennedy]

It's been a wild journey for @manc_collective over the last few years and will continue to be with 3 years of #NPO funding from @ace_national - we'll be able to share more great music, provoke and entertain which I feel very humble and grateful to be a part of 💚
