LAUNCH OF NEW HUB SET TO BRING THE JOY OF MUSIC TO CITY KIDS

- GURDIP THANDI

MORE than 100 new jobs are to be created following the opening of a new Birmingham base for a music school.

Black Sabbath's first manager Jim Simpson and the Deputy Mayor of the West Midlands Sharon Thompson officially opened the new Rocksteady facility at JQ Modern building in the Jewellery Quarter.

It plans to create 100 music education jobs at the new Birmingham base in the next three years.

Rocksteady Music Schools provide primary-age children with in-school band lessons, including 212 across the West Midlands.

In addition, through the Rocksteady Foundation, it already provides more than £300,000 of free music lessons each year in the West Midlands, giving more than 1,000 disadvantaged children across the region access to music lessons.
