A 12 year-old Ukrainian refugee described as an exceptional pianist says earning a place at the Royal Academy of Music is “like a dream”.

Kateryna Pyshniuk and her mother Anna fled the Ukraine war after a month and live with a host family in Bristol.

Kateryna started playing the piano, aged five, and says playing keeps her mind off the war.

After arriving in Bristol her musical skills quickly led to her being offered a place at Clifton College.
