Radio Nottingham appearance
Roma Seth and Hilary Dalton were interviewed on Radio Nottingham on 1st November 2013.

Beeston Carnival 2013
We were at the Beeston Carnival in July 2013.
We took along Sami the signing puppet, and sold children's musical instruments to raise funds. It was a really really hot day, and by popular request we sang 'I hear Thunder' many times, while spraying the crowd with cool water!
Wonderful African music
On 7th November 2012 we had a very special visitor at Speech, Sign and Song. We spent part of our 'multicultural' budget on a kora demonstration by Jude Winwood. The kora is a beautiful African harp. Children and adults alike were totally mesmerised.
Beeston Carnival 2012
On Saturday 14th July we took part in the Beeston Carnival with our newest group member, Sami the Signing Puppet! He attracted a lot of attention and we had a great time singing and signing. But the photographer wouldn't let him move his hands for this picture! We also sold every single toy that had been donated and raised over £100 for the Speech, Sign and Song Club.
