Drums Aloud has supported a number of events and organisations, both through the sharing of the instruments which Drums Aloud own, and through the regular members and teachers passing on their expertise to enhance teaching in local schools and providing promotional sessions to local organisations. Mike Tinsley is the primary contact for these activities and he has delivered the vast majority of these community engagements.
