Yesterday CHVRCHES announced they have become a patron for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Summer School for Girls Glasgow after hearing previous funding for the camp had fallen through. This summer camp will teach local girls aged 8-16 years how to rock out. Coming at just the right time, Girls Rock Glasgow said the sponsorship will enable them to move forward with plans and offer more places than ever before. The full announcement from CHVRCHES’ lead singer Lauren Mayberry can be read below.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Summer School for Girls Glasgow will take place from July 14-22, 2018 at Kinning Park Complex and Empire Studios. For more information regarding applications to attend or volunteering opportunities please visit Girls Rock Glasgow.

At the time of writing it has not been confirmed if the band will be appearing or teaching at the summer school however their currently listed concert schedule suggests they may be visiting.

We are excited to be supporting @girlsrockglasgow, a really valuable community project that will be teaching local girls how to rock out at their camp this summer. Growing up, I didn't know many other girls playing in bands. If I hadn't seen awesome and inspiring women in bands that I loved - Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Garbage, Sleater-Kinney - then it would never have occurred to me that maybe one day I could do that. I have hardly ever seen a female sound engineer in a venue, locally or internationally, and you hardly ever see women headlining festivals. Let's change that by helping Girls Rock Glasgow teach young women that they can be anything they want to be. Link to find out more in bio.
