AMP Kingston would not have been possible without the support and funding of the National Lottery Heritage Fund, The Foyle Foundation, Royal Borough of Kingston and Creative Youth.
Creative Youth is a not for profit registered charity that aims to enable young people to realise their potential through the arts.
