Schools' Link Music as Therapy is
actively involved in a variety of collaborations with Schools, which
come under the umbrella of our Schools' Link programme. We are
particularly grateful to The Anglo-Romanian Educational Trust for
helping us to implement this area of our work.
If you know a school holding
a concert or looking for a charity to support over the coming year, do
get in touch. We are always excited to form new partnerships and
to talk to students of all ages about our
work in Romania, about Music Therapy as a possible career, to organise musical
competitions to suit all ages and to hold
interactive musical workshops - where students can experience
for themselves the ways in which music can be used to facilitate
communication in a different way.
Leading figures in the
classical music industry support us by donating copies of their
recordings and so we are fortunate to be able to supply good quality
musical prizes for students or incentives
to music departments in exchange for a school's support.
We appreciate the school
calendar is always jam packed and so we are determined to work as hard
as the students and staff at our partnerships. Let us know what we
can do in exchange for your support.
