Background
The Carole Cable Memorial Fund
was set up to commemorate the life and work of Carole
Cable,
founder and first Musical Director of Barking Operatic Society, who
died in May 1997. An initial target of £5,000 was achieved from
donations in her memory and the Fund was launched in November 1997.
Purpose
The purpose of the Fund is to provide financial assistance for young
musicians of Barking and Dagenham to further their musical talent and
education, for example through awards for musical instruments, music
lessons or other music-related experiences.
Administration
The CCMF is continually boosted by donations in response to mail-shots
and by fundraising events and it aims to make annual awards of
£50 -
£500 to individual applicants.

CCMF Representative, via the Barking MAD website and applicants will be
required to complete an application form giving information on such
things as :-
