Our mission is to transform under-served communities by enabling children to access quality music education through our Scholarship programme. Our vision is that every child who demonstrates musical ability & commitment to learning an instrument is given the opportunity to develop their potential.

Situation
There is a huge gulf in opportunity for instrumental learning in the UK; only 12% of the most deprived schools have any kind of orchestra, compared to 85% of independent schools (BPI, 2018). We aim to address this significant gap and focus on the middle ground between first musical experiences and high musical achievement. LMF’s founders recognised that what is often missing in UK music education are the structures & funding to support young people through the journey between these poles.
Solution
We are raising funds for our Scholarship programme which enables young Londoners who cannot afford to progress with their musical learning to access instrumental lessons, suitably challenging ensembles, a dedicated Mentor from their Music Service, performance opportunities, instrument hire, playing days at inspirational venues and more for four whole years.
