Registered Charity No: 1141216 (England & Wales).
The London Music Fund is an independent charity (no. 1141216) whose vision is that every child who demonstrates significant musical ability, enthusiasm and commitment to learning an instrument should be given the opportunity to develop their potential.
Our mission is to enable young Londoners from low-income families to have access to high-quality, sustained, progressive music education. Winner of ‘Outstanding Musical Initiative’ at the 2021 Music & Drama Education Awards, the charity supports individual instrumental Scholarships for children at primary school and funds a number of inspiring collaborative projects for young people aged 8-18.
Since 2011, the London Music Fund has invested over £5m in funding to music education in London, awarded over 1,000 four-year Scholarships, and reached almost 100,000 young musicians through wider projects.
We believe that access to music education should be available to every child, and not just those who can afford to participate. From increased academic attainment to improved behaviour, confidence and social skills, there is growing evidence that learning a musical instrument enriches a young person’s life. These benefits radiate through their family and back into their local community.
Leaving a legacy gift in your Will to the London Music Fund will enable us to ensure children from low-income families have access to music a time when more and more families are seeing instrumental tuition as a luxury they simply cannot afford.
