We're fundraising to work with 30 children with emerging musical talent & from low income families to progress their musical development in partnership with Lewisham Music. Each child will receive tailored musical support including free weekly instrumental lessons so they can reach their potential.

    Situation

    Support for children who are able and interested in music making is lacking. In primary school they receive free instrumental lesson for up to a year but as these are largely with the entire class, one-to-one input isn’t given to those who’d most benefit from it. This particularly affects children from low income families who can’t afford private tuition. Covid-19 and resulting school closures has exacerbated this disparity.

    Solution

    Furthering Talent identifies and nurtures the musical potential of these children. We'll work with Lewisham Music, other local music and community organisations and parents/carers to enable them to reach their potential. Each child benefits from bespoke support for at least two years including: free weekly instrumental lessons; a bursary of £150 to help them achieve their goals; an Individual Learning Plan so they can set music development goals and termly enrichment activities.
