"“The commitment and professionalism shown both by the young people who were performing and those who organise and run the CYWO is incredible and everyone concerned is to be commended. So oftern young people are seen in a negative light and it was an absolute pleasure to have the privilidge of attending such an event. These young people showed amazig talent and real commitment, whilst at the same time studying for exams and only meeting up a few times during the year. We are already looking forward to next year and being involved with this wonderful organisation and the people who make it all possible.”
