DOUBLE YOUR DONATION!

OKMT has an amazing opportunity to have donations DOUBLED from midday Tuesday 17th March to midday 24th March with funding matched by the Big Give Arts for Impact up to a maximum of £12,000.

During that week you can donate here https://bit.ly/BigGiveOKMusicSchool  or scan the QR code in the image.

All funds raised will go towards OK Music School which is teaching 80 children and young people with disabilities to play a musical instrument or sing and perform in public concerts. Children and young people with disabilities are often excluded from mainstream activities, including music, despite many responding postitively to it, which can lead to isolation, stigma and low self-esteem.

At OK Music School pupils receive 1-1 music lessons with music therapists or specialist teachers, enabling them to learn to play an instrument and express themselves through music. Pupils perfrom in 4 annual concerts, increasing representation in the community. They gain communication and socialisation skills along with confidence and pride and make friends. 28 pupils have passed music exams and several aspire to a career in music.

“Music has allowed him to express himself and boosted his confidence. He feels like he fits in now.” 

“When I play the guitar, I forget all my troubles”

So please, if you can, donate during the Big Give week to Double the Difference you will make.
