Emma Blanksby
Project Manager, The Prince’s Foundation for Children & the Arts, Education
My name is Emma and I'm a Project Manager at The Prince’s Foundation for Children & the Arts. I manage our national projects, known as Quests, which provide children with an introduction to one art form over one or two school terms. To choose a favourite would be difficult but I particularly enjoyed my most recent project, TheatreQuest, which introduced secondary school children to theatre. We worked with some really inspirational teachers and unearthed some fantastic talent amongst pupils.
When I was a child I was lucky enough to be taken to see and do lots of things by my parents and schools and am so pleased that I can be part of offering those opportunities to children who would not otherwise have them.
Last year I also organised our inaugural carol concert. We met some wonderful people and raised the charity's profile along with much needed funds. Tickets sold out very fast last year so make sure you secure yours early this year!
