Your support enables us to continue our work across the UK – with the people and places where the transformative power of music is needed most. By supporting Live Music Now you can help address all these challenges, and help us to continue inspiring musicians and transforming lives.
With the number of older people living in the UK increasing, and the ongoing rise of cases of dementia, many people are losing their connection with the world around them. Through their participation in Live Music Now performances, they are able to reconnect with life, as songs and familiar tunes unlock memories, experience periods of lucidity and recognition of family members all of which improve their wellbeing.
Children with special educational needs are restricted from many of the creative and musical opportunities mainstream children take for granted, due to their specialist support needs, access issues and disabilities. Live Music Now is able to provide these musical experiences and creative learning opportunities in a supported school environment enabling every child to meet their full potential as creative music-makers.
Emerging professional musicians are facing the most challenging employment situation for a generation and many exceptionally talented musicians may leave the profession due to economic challenges. Live Music Now can help to prevent this by providing musicians with the training, support and paid performance opportunities they need to establish themselves, and continue to contribute to the vibrant cultural life of the UK.
