Music for All Re-opens its Community Project Funding Grant Scheme (UK)

Grants are available to UK based community groups and schools to bring music to their community and to establish themselves as  a sustainable music programme.

The funding which is being made available by the charity Music for All, can be put towards musical instrument costs, workshops/training, using music to break down barriers, providing a variety of educational opportunities as well as helping to find ways to integrate many diverse and minority groups positively into society. 

UK based community music groups and educational organisations are eligible to apply. Applicants are encouraged to look for other sources of funding to add to the amount needed to deliver the project.

Examples of projects funded:

  • Belham Primary School: Used a grant from Music for All to purchase instruments and resulted in 137 out of the 180 children learning violin, guitar, ukulele or recorder. This compares to 6 months earlier when only a handful were learning just the recorder.

The next closing date for applications is the 10th September 2021.

Music for All also award grants to individual musicians.  This programme is currently closed to applications.
