Super meeting Heatherwood School with Rosie Hood

Her year-long Live Music Now residency using Sounds of Intent supported children’s levels of engagement & communication

And v excited to continue music making here with Royal Opera House & darts creating new music resources.

2023 saw the #Lullabyproject win a staggering £70,000 through The National Lottery Community Fund.

This money is funding the launch of 5 new Lullaby projects and helping a further 40 families to unlock creative skills and parent/child bonding through the magic of music.

As we reflect on our work of the past year, we find inspiration in the wisdom of Yehudi Menuhin, legendary violinist and visionary founder of Live Music Now.
