The Clifford Project

High Street, Stone

 The Clifford Project was established to give more choice for those young people between 16-25 years of age, with learning difficulties, leaving school or college.
The project sets out to give the students a real experience of work, wherever possible, maximising on their own strengths. They will be singing and signing for us to start off our finale day.
 
 
 
 

1pm   The Swing Kings

High Street, Stone
 
Ron Hills and his Swing Kings are a popular fixture at The Stone Jazz Club, held every Monday at The Vine Inn, Oulton Road, Stone. A multi talented combo with a wealth of experience, each member has ‘gigged’ with many national and international luminaries of the Jazz scene. The Swing Kings seek to interpret again the great songs of the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and beyond. The great Jazz musicians of those heady days would certainly approve of their style and passion. We hope you enjoy them.
 
If you like what you hear why not pay a visit to the Vine on a Monday from 9pm onwards.
