Supporters & Funding

The arts have the power to shape a young person’s future. Find out how you can help us to support music in Northumberland.

Supporter donations

The arts are not simply ‘nice to have’, or an ‘add-on’ to education. They have the power to change and shape young lives. Music in-particular can create opportunities for children to express their ideas and form their values.



Funding is reducing every year and families are finding it harder to find the money to pay for music lessons for their children.

• £15 per month can sponsor a child’s place in a county ensemble.
• £18 per month would provide free instrumental or vocal tuition for a child.
• A one off donation of £15 would buy a child’s place on a workshop day​.
