All money raised will go to our OK MUSIC SCHOOL, where 76 children and young people with additional needs learn to play music and perform. They gain confidence, make friends and feel proud performing in our 2 annual concerts. 18 pupils have even passed a total of 35 music exams. We are aiming to raise £10,000 to help us continue this life-enhancing work and meet the high demand.
“OK Music School has given me the courage to stand in front of a crowd and speak or sing. Music shows more than you can ever think”
