    Episode 12 - It Takes a Village
    Sep 7 2023
    It’s our last episode of the series so we are ending on a sentimental note and talking all things youth clubs with famed choreographer Boy Blue a.k.a Kenrick Sandy. Kenrick is a world class choreographer and earned his stripes in his local youth club as a teenager. Youth clubs play a vital role in the upbringing of many young Caribbeans in the UK and in this way are a key part of the village that it takes to raise a child. So now with an MBE under his belt and choreographing events such as the London Olympic Opening Ceremony, Kenrick likes to give back to the institution that helped him flourish and volunteers at youth clubs whenever he can.  This episode was a Message Heard production brought to you in partnership with Catherine Ross and Lynda Burrell of The National Caribbean Heritage Museum: Museumand.
