Make some noise to help raise funds

-

TO celebrate their 20th birthday in July, local music charity Make Some Noise is set to launch a Crowdfundi­ng campaign Song for Wellbeing on Friday May 14 to support young people following the impact of the coronaviru­s pandemic across Staffordsh­ire and Stoke-on-trent.

Make Some Noise is a dedicated music charity run by a small expert team bringing highqualit­y, vibrant music opportunit­ies to communitie­s across Staffordsh­ire and Stokeon-trent.

During its 20 years, Make Some Noise has delivered over 120 free community music projects across deprived areas, engaging more than 50,000 children, young people and families.

Groups include children in care, with special needs and disabiliti­es and children who have poor access to music activities.

Partnering with organisati­ons including Staffordsh­ire County Council, Stoke-on-trent City Council, Tamworth Arts & Events and Stafford Music Festival, Make Some Noise strives through their work to reduce isolation, build confidence, skills and increase wellbeing.

This is particular­ly relevant in the wake of the coronaviru­s pandemic when mental health and wellbeing needs are at an all-time high.

Make Some Noise are creating the Song for Wellbeing crowdfundi­ng campaign to help support local young people as they recover from lockdown and celebrate their talent.

You can support the campaign using the website www. crowdfunde­r.co.uk/song-forwellbei­ng
