IMPORTANT NOTICE
It is with great sadness that in the summer of 2025, the Trustees took the extremely difficult decision for HYOT not to continue operating due to lack of necessary funding. The Charity is currently undergoing the process of closure.
For any information, please do not hesitate to contact us on music@hyot.org.uk.
