Drumming is an easy and fun way to make music with other people.

You do not need to have any previous experience or a musical background to enjoy drumming. Drumming can contribute to a healthy way of life. It can help to energise us and make us more alert. It can help us release tension and feel more relaxed!

The project is based at Pepenbury in Pembury, and is a partnership with Sherwood Park School, Oakley School, Little Forest Children’s Centre, Kent High Weald Partnership and Tunbridge Wells Borough Council. Food growing plots are being established for the community at both schools and at Pepenbury, promoting healthy eating, healthy lifestyle and providing an outdoor space for physical exercise. All three sites are actively seeking volunteers at present to help maintain the allotment areas.
