At the English Folk Dance and Song Society, we champion the English traditional arts as part of the rich and diverse cultural landscape of the UK

We deliver programmes of learning and participation and artists development:

• through our arts venue, Cecil Sharp House
• through our library and archive, the Vaughan Williams Memorial Library
• and at a range of venues across England, and sometimes beyond.

We frequently work in partnership with arts, education and heritage organisations.

We offer many opportunities for young people to learn and get inspired about folk music, dance and song.
