    Situation

    Across the UK, many outstanding children experience financial barriers to achieving their full musical potential. There are 2.5 million children living in poverty in the UK (source: Institute of Fiscal Studies) and it is estimated that 600 - 1,000 children with exceptional musical abilities are lost to society each year. The young musicians we work with are given the chance to develop their musical talent by critical support from Future Talent at an early stage in their lives.

    Solution

    We offer a full Young Musicians Development Programme which provides our musicians with (1) £,1000 of financial support to pay for music lessons/courses/instrument hire or repair and other needs (2) professional mentoring (3) orchestral/ensemble days led by professional musicians (4) performing opportunities in a variety of venues (5) access to our Relationship Manager for support to families and children for advice and help.
