Mum hannah started taking arlo to gigs when she realised it was cheaper than hiring a baby sitter. Making the fanzine has been a huge part of his lockdown learning at home. Luckily his school are really, really supportive and weve spoken to them about the skills that he is using but it would be very easy for me as a parent to take over but, no, hes been involved in everything.
