New music charity for London needs trustees

Tri-Borough Music Hub

 

 

New music charity for London is now seeking trustees to help us extend music education across all communities in west London, particularly for disadvantaged people. 

 

Musical Boroughs Trust has been granted registered charity status by the UK’s Charity Commission, so that it can start fundraising to help more young people and the wider community engage with music in three London Boroughs. Now it is calling for new trustees to help it in its work.

 

“Our next step is to complete the board of the charity, so if you are passionate about music, education and social impact we are looking for local people with fresh ideas to join our founding trustees, helping us to grow and represent our communities”, continues Stuart.

 

The charity seeks two young trustees aged 18 to 25 years, and also specialists who can offer expertise in fundraising, marketing/communications and finance/accounting.

A key aim of the charity is to reduce financial barriers to music education learning for local schoolchildren who face disadvantage, social deprivation, inequality and financial hardship. This includes discounted fees and bursaries for pupils.

 

A Year 13 pupil who studied music locally says

 

“I could never have achieved all that I did during the last 5 years without the work of the Tri-borough Music Hub as a whole. They care immensely about the way that music helps support children, especially in the most formative years of their lives. The new Musical Boroughs Trust is a fantastic cause and I hope that they can help support countless other young people to access music education.” Tiarnan Morrison, aged 18.

 

 

Musical Boroughs Trust is inviting local people to help the new charity in many ways including as potential trustees.

 

Supporters can also make donations, introduce us to potential funders, volunteer (e.g. for our “users voice group”), and generally spread the word.

 

All of these things can help secure the future of music education for people of all ages.
