We invite children and young people and their parents/carers to come and find out more about the lessons and groups on offer at the Lytham St Anne’s Music Centre, based at St Bede’s Catholic High School on Tuesdays and LSA High School on Thursdays, with Lytham Youth Choir  meeting at St Bede’s on a Thursday.
