LYC people
Pastoral CarersFor many individuals, our rehearsals are the only place where they have a dedicated pastoral support network and someone to talk to.
We have two dedicated Senior Pastoral Carers, Emily Sanders and Katherine Adams, who are trainee pediatric nurses and have a wealth of pastoral experience as well as being experienced musicians themselves. They work closely with our Operations Manager, Bethan Thomas, who has overall responsibility for all Safeguarding matters at LYC.
