This resource, written by Emmie Ward, is particularly suitable for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEN/D) - including those with learning disabilities and complex needs. It is based on repertoire used during Folk Unlimited, EFDSS’s fortnightly SEN/D folk session, to celebrate May, with audio, notation and notes, using a number of creative elements and communication strategies developed during the project to enable all participants to contribute fully.

In 2019, EFDSS launched Inclusive Folk; a new seven-month pilot project developed to increase access to folk arts opportunities for disabled young people, their friends, family and carers. This project, led by Emmie Ward, with Joe Danks and trainee, Freda D’Souza, was made possible with the generous support of the People’s Postcode Lottery, a grant-giving charity funded by players of People’s Postcode Lottery. The project included Folk Unlimited, fortnightly Sunday afternoon sessions at Cecil Sharp House, outreach sessions at colleges and settings for young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEN/D), the creation of this new free learning resource for the EFDSS Resource Bank, and training opportunities for music educators.

This resource is one of over 100 educational materials in the English Folk Dance and Song Society’s Resource Bank of free, downloadable materials. These are designed for you to use in your teaching and learning, incorporating English traditional folk song, music, dance, drama and other arts. They are suitable for use in formal and informal settings including primary, secondary and SEN schools, youth ensembles, community choirs, adult learning and more.
