Live Music Now

For 45 years, Live Music Now has been at the forefront of delivering social impact through music. As well as being a profoundly joyful activity, participation in live music has a wide range of wellbeing benefits. Bringing together professional musicians and those living and working in care settings, as well as children and young people with additional learning needs, Live Music Now supports people facing social exclusion and disadvantage with the transformative power of music.

Inspiring Older People

Inspiring Older People
Working with our trained professional musicians can transform quality of life for older people living with dementia or experiencing loneliness. Our sessions lift mood, support communication, relieve stress and bring people together. 

Empowering Children and Young People

Empowering Children and Young People
Music-making can support children with additional needs and disabilities to lead happy and fulfilling lives, yet many lack the opportunity. Live Music Now collaborates with schools and communities to bring the benefits of live music to those who need it most.

Your Impact

Your Impact
With your help, we can bring the healing power of music to thousands more people experiencing challenging circumstances. £25 could pay for someone to join a music-making session with a trained professional musician.
