Musicians Perrilena Alleyne Hughes, Richard Henry, Jilly Jarman and Dennis Rollins, web developer Jeni Tehan and communications consultant Jon Beck are the six new trustees announced by Jazz North as new appointments to its board. Jazz North, a north of England-based jazz development agency, say the appointments double the size of the board and that the organisation adapted its recruitment process and enlisted the support of Black Lives in Music to help promote the vacancies.
