Furthering Talent: End of Year Review 2021
2021 was an eventful year for many reasons and we really wanted to share some of the fantastic work that has taken place as part of the Furthering Talent programme…
Read moreWe’re once again delighted to be participating in The Childhood Trust’s Champions for Children campaign.
We’re partnering with Lewisham Music to raise £24,150 to support our work with 30 young musicians facing a wide range of circumstances who are on our Furthering Talent programme. Without our help, these young musicians face real barriers to continue their musical journey. Through Furthering Talent, each child will receive tailored musical support including free weekly instrumental lessons so they can keep making music.
Donations made between Tuesday 14 June and Tuesday 21 June 2022 will be doubled! If you would like to make a pledge to have your donation doubled, please fill in the form below. We’ll then be back in touch when the campaign starts about how you can donate. Thank you!
Stay up to date with the campaign by joining our mailing list.
