## Activities

**Objects:** THE OBJECTS OF THE CIO IS TO PROMOTE AND ADVANCE THE ART OF MUSIC, INCLUDING OPERA, IN HEATHFIELD, EAST SUSSEX AND IN SUCH OTHER PARTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM AS THE TRUSTEES MAY FROM TIME TO TIME THINK FIT. THIS WILL BE DONE BY THE PROVISION OF PUBLIC PERFORMANCES, WORKSHOPS, GRANTS TO ASPIRING MUSICANS AND OTHER APPROPRIATE PROJECTS THAT ALIGN WITH THESE OBJECTS.

**Activities:** Following our highly successful production of Aida in Heathfield, East Sussex in October 2015, we are currently considering our options and plans for another production.  Additionally, our charitable objects have now been extended to allow us to support music more widely (not just opera) and to provide grants to aspiring musicians.
