Grant News
Interest-free loans are available to musicians at all stages for the purchase of musical instruments and equipment, to help ensure that more people across England and Northern Ireland can access instruments and learn to play music.
The loans which are made available through the Take it Away Scheme work with 130 music retailers to allow applicants to buy almost any musical instrument and can also be used for musical equipment, software and tuition.
The Arts Councils in England and Northern Ireland back the Scheme. Loans of up to £5,000 are available in England and up to £2,000 in Northern Ireland.
Applicants must be over 18, a permanent resident in the UK and have an annual income of £5,000 or more.
Applications can be made at any time.
