PLEASE SUPPORT US

Together, we can make a positive impact through the power of music.

Why we need your support

Orchestras for All relies on the generous support of funders, individual givers and supporters to make our vision of inclusive music-making a reality.

Your contributions help us provide life-changing opportunities for young people facing barriers to music education, enabling them to develop confidence, teamwork and creativity through the power of orchestral music.

From funding our accessible programmes and supporting the purchase of instruments and training for music teachers, every donation plays a vital role in ensuring that no young musician is left behind. Together, we can create a world where music is a space for everyone.

To learn more about what we do and discover the impact of your donations, please read our latest Impact Report.

“NOFA is a second home for me – a second family, a safe space. I can’t recall any moment here that I haven’t enjoyed. I feel respected and heard – and it’s here that I’ve made some of my closest friends.”
— Noah, National Orchestra for All pianist

2. Give as an organisation

Trusts and foundations

Trusts and foundations play a vital role in helping Orchestras for All deliver impactful and inclusive music-making activities for young people. By providing essential funding, they can enable us to break down barriers to music education, offering transformative experiences for those who might otherwise be excluded due to financial, social or geographic challenges.

Whether it’s support for specific programmes, such as National Orchestra for All or the Modulo Programme, or contributing to core costs that sustain our work, trusts and foundations help us empower the next generation of young people through the life-changing power of music. Together, we can inspire, uplift and create a more inclusive future.
