GOLD DUST ACADEMY

The Gold Dust Academy aims to offer interactive DJ and broadcast workshops designed to inspire and empower young people. Our sessions provide hands-on training using various formats in music selection, mixing, basic radio broadcasting, nurturing creativity and confidence in a supportive environment for mainly 10– 19-year-olds from all backgrounds. In the UK, involvement in music and creative arts has shown significant benefits for children and young people, including those classified as NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training). Funding is being sought to deliver these sessions with more regularity in a permanent facility.

Our Ethos:
We believe in breaking barriers and creating opportunities. By fostering inclusivity, innovation and collaboration, the Gold Dust Academy aims to equip the next generation with the skills and confidence to thrive in the music industry while celebrating the transformative power of music.

Our workshops can be held on your premises or suitable facilities that can be hired and tailored to suit your needs. Participants will receive mentorship from industry professionals and have opportunities to showcase their skills on any relevant platforms, such as Gold Dust Radio or at community events.
