The Competitive Festival Movement provides opportunities for individual talent to be developed to its best level.

It provides a platform for many talented amateur musicians and verse speakers of all ages, both for thoseespecially gifted & for those who just want to learn how to give of their best. It gives the stimulus of preparing fora public occasion and an opportunity to listen and learn from the performance of other competitors.

Most important is the constructive criticism, help and advice given by professional adjudicators which helps the competitors to improve their respective skills, and, of course, educates. It is not really important whether competitors achieve first, second or third places in a class, but the adjudicators’ remarks both on paper and in public give a sense of achievement and encourage development.

Many of today’s professionals began by entering Competitive Festivals. Cornwall Music Festival is proud to name among its former competitors Sir David Willcocks, Wendy Eathorne, alan Opie and Benjamin luxon.

Christopher Field has enjoyed a widely varied musical career. As a boy, he sang at the Coronation of HM Queen Elizabeth II in Westminster Abbey and played double bass in the London Schools Symphony Orchestra. He was a Choral Exhibitioner at Trinity College, Cambridge and a scholar of the Royal Academy of Music, later winning an Arts Council of Great Britain scholarship for postgraduate singing studies with Frederick Husler in Switzerland.

Tish Nicoll is a Fellow of The English Speaking Board; a member of The Society of Teachers of Speech and Drama; a member of The British Voice Association, and a Member of the Panel of Speech and Drama Adjudicators of the British

and International Federation of Festivals.

Born in Aberdeen, Scotland, Tish is a Licentiate of The Guildhall School of Music and Drama. She has a wide range of experience in teaching all age groups in schools, colleges and the business world.

From an early age Tish took part in Festivals and well remembers how it feels to be a participant!

Hilary Keam, a retired Primary School teacher, was ‘born and bred’ in Cornwall, and is fiercely proud of her Cornishheritage. She has been writing and performing her own Cornish Dialect poems for the past thirty-five years, andis in constant demand to entertain at Churches, Chapels, Old Cornwall Societies, WI meetings and Senior CitizensGroups. These engagements provide the opportunity for her to support various Cornish Charities with donationsshe receives in lieu of fees. As well as performing in Cornwall, she has entertained at both the Sydney and AdelaideCornish Associations. It was a very proud occasion for her when she was initiated as a Bard at the 2010 Cornish

Gorseth. She has been a volunteer helper at the Cornwall Music Festival for the past six years, and feels honoured

to be invited to adjudicate the Cornish Dialect Class again this year.

Did you know.... that when you make unauthorised photocopies of a copyright work, nobody gets paid?

When you photocopy without permission, you jeopardisethe livelihoods of composers, publishers and music shops. Youcould also end up in court whichwould be very costly.

So, support the music you enjoy:buy and use originals. They are clearer and easier to read, they lastlonger, and when you buy themyou are supporting composers andpublishers and are helping to keep awide range of music available.

CORnWall MUSIC FESTIvalRegistered Charity No. 287828

Affiliated to the British and International Federation of Festivals for Music Dance & Speech

S A F E G U A R D I N G P O L I C Y implemented from July 2008 (revised February 2012)

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTThe safety of children and members of other vulnerable groups is paramount and all, without exception, have the right to protection from abuse. All suspicions and allegations of abuse will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately and all the charity’s trustees, staff and volunteers have a responsibility to report concerns. Throughout this Policy, where “children” are mentioned, this also includes members of other vulnerable groups.

1 PURPOSE AND FUNCTION OF ORGANISATION: CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL holds annually in the County of Cornwall an amateur competitive and non competitive festival of music and spoken word under the title of CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL (‘the Festival’). The Festival commenced in 1910 and has continually striven to ensure a happy and friendly atmosphere for all competitors who may enter from within the County of Cornwall or anywhere beyond. Professional adjudicators and specialists are engaged to ensure a high standard of judgment of competition for which trophies may be awarded or otherwise.

2 THE FESTIVAL ENVIRONMENTCORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL declares that it will take practical steps to ensure that the Festival is held in a safe environment for children under the age of eighteen years and vulnerable persons of any age who are attending.TMC has three performance areas. Performers can move safely between these areas without leaving the building. Each area is staffed by carefully screened volunteers and members of the Festival Committee.The Church is not usually used by members of the public during Festival Week unless they are attending the Festival.CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL cannot, however, take responsibility for children and, in this regard, sends this policy to all parents, guardians and carers to let them know that, if they are not attending with their children, it is their responsibility to ensure that they are accompanied to the festival and supervised by a responsible adult.

identified to the organisers prior to their arrival at the festival. This should be done by contacting the address or telephonenumber at the foot of this document. Our festival actively seeks, wherever possible, to meet these needs, but must know beforehand in order to prepare support or to let you know we are unable to help.

4 FESTIVAL PERSONNELAll volunteers are selectedfromknown associates,andtheirrecords (namesaddressesetc) are keptonfile. Where thejob descriptionreview has identified that an enhanced disclosure is required this will have been obtained fromthe Criminal Records Bureau.At the Festival, each steward on duty will be identifiable by a suitable and clear badge. In the case of a problem anyone wearinga badge should be approached and will be able to help. Problems will usually be dealt with by the appointed senior organiseron duty for the time being at the Festival, who will take steps to resolve the issue privately in a sympathetic and understandingmanner. Written record of any problem and its resolution will be maintained by CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL.

5 PREPARATION FOR ATTENDING THE FESTIVALThis Policy is sent to all parents, guardians and carers in time for them to make their arrangements for their performance(s) at the CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL. It is sent either directly or via children’s teachers, who are partners in ensuring a safe environment at the festival. It relates to children under the age of 18 years and members of vulnerable groups of any age who are identified to the organisers prior to their arrival at the festival.By signing in the appropriate place on the Entry Form, teachers, parents and guardians accept that they have become partners in implementing this Policy. If teachers do not return a signed form, entries cannot be accepted as it may damage this charity irreparably if failure to follow the Safeguarding Policy is not observed.Where parents/guardians/carers are not attending with their children, this Policy requires them to be satisfied that theirchildren will be accompanied to the festival and adequately supervised by responsible adults acting on their behalf.

6 PERFORMANCE AREASThe Festival is typically held in a single suite of buildings, to which the general public may be admitted upon purchase of a ticket. The Festival stewards have authority to exclude any person without stating reasons. Toilet facilities are available at various locations throughout the premises and the Responsible Adult is solely responsible for supervising any Child requiring such facilities.There are no permitted changing rooms or ‘warm-up’ rooms available, except at the sole discretion of the senior organiser on duty. Coats and equipment are to be left in auditoria during performances. In any case where a changing or ‘warm-up’facility becomes available, the Responsible Adult will remain solely responsible for supervising any Child using it.

7 PHOTOGRAPHS, VIDEOTAPES and PRESS PHOTOGRAPHYIn accordance with the Rules and Notices set out each year in the Syllabus and Programme, the Festival does not permit photography, video, sound recording or the like at any time, except by representatives of news media who bear press passes issued by CORNWALL MUSIC FESTIVAL and the Festival Photographer. All such representatives are required to ascertain from teachers and parents whether or not such photography, recording or the like may be made, and whether or not any person’s name or identity may be included in any subsequent publication or broadcast.

8 THE LEGISLATION AND GUIDANCE THAT SUPPORTS THIS POLICYThe Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974; The Children Act 1989; The Police Act 1997; The Data Protection Act 1998;The Human Rights Act 1998; The Protection of Children Act 1999; The Criminal Justice and Court Services Act 2000:The Children Act 2004; The Protection of Vulnerable Groups Act 2006.
