Aim
Our online Music Industry Recovery Programme helps young adults with mental health needs stay well and connected amid the Covid-19 crisis
Our award-winning ‘Music Industry Recovery Programme’ engages young adults with mental health challenges in unique music studio sessions and live performance supported by music industry mentors.
Since the Coronavirus crisis began, we have been delivering online support through our 'Studio Connect' initiative, engaging young adults in collaborative online music making, harnessing the creative process to elicit valuable conversations and mentoring activities around mental health.
This includes one-to-one mentoring sessions and weekly online Music Industry workshops - offering guest talks from industry experts and an online Open Mic
We also offer valuable employability skills progression and social interaction, through online group Music Industry Awareness Workshops, featuring guest speakers from across the industry. This helps to ensure that our clients can develop their transferable skills and build hope for the future, despite the challenging climate.
