A charity boss whose junior orchestra wowed Britain’s Got Talent has apologised after being accused of bullying – the day before she backed Stormzy at the Brit Awards.
Chi-chi Nwanoku, founder of Chineke! Foundation, sent an email to musicians pledging to change her ways.
It comes after the foundation – which runs both Black and ethnically diverse orchestras – was handed £2.1million in funding from the Arts Council, despite it being aware of a complaint against Ms Nwanoku. We told last month how two ex-workers and a conductor alleged she bullied them.
