To educate, inspire and create through music with:
- school workshops for children from Mont A L'Abbe to St Martin's school;
- therapeutic musical performances in the hospital, hospice and care homes;
- opportunities to hear live music in Jersey at the Liberation Festival or the Jersey Chamber Orchestra concerts; and
- platforms for local artists to perform at our events such as Jersey Sings, or the Armistice Day concert.
We always partner together with other charities to maximise the benefits of our work.
