Learn the kora in southern FranceThe Kora Workshop is a small UK company that makes beautiful, high quality koras (a type of West African harp) and teaches people how to play them. UK festivalgoers may have bumped into its staff at Womad or Tribal Earth, but it also offers week-long immersion workshops in the Aveyron in southern France. They include seven days of tuition (both individual and group sessions), as well as shared accommodation and the loan of a kora.

Travellers to the United Kingdom, including those from the US, Canada, Australia and more than 30 European countries, must now apply for Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before entering the country. Each person in a travelling group must apply separately for an ETA - including babies and children - and the quickest way to apply is through downloadable apps on the App Store or Google Play, though you can also apply online from a computer.
