Charli Britton

It was with great sadness that we heard of the passing of Charli Britton.

Charli made a huge contribution to Welsh pop music as a drummer with rock band Edward H Dafis and several other bands.

We are extremely grateful to him for sharing his passion and expertise with dozens of young aspiring drummers from North West Wales through his work as a tutor at the Canolfan for 15 years. He was a kind and popular tutor who inspired his students.

He was also a very talented graphic designer who was responsible for designing several of the Canolfan’s marketing materials. Always willing to go the extra mile and a pleasure to work with.

He will be sorely missed. Rest in peace Charli and thank you.
