Activities & Mission

The charity supports music activities for young people and adults in Beds and surrounding areas. Following the demise of Bedfordshire Music, we have become responsible for operating the holiday youth music ensemble courses in the former county and advising on policy with the local Music Hubs. Our aim is to provide access to musical opportunities for young musicians appropriate to their abilities.
