Partnerships provide music opportunities for young people in Tebay
All the research tells us that playing a musical instrument is extremely beneficial for young people’s development and mental health.
But it is very hard to access thanks to cuts in education and distances to travel.
We are tackling this imaginatively in Tebay. This month, Tebay Primary School links up with the Melody Makers beginner music group which is just next door, but which is still a bit of a mystery for many children.
With active involvement of teachers from the school and thanks to a cash boost from the Tebay Parish Council, 4 young people will get the chance to be in the band, to take part in musical activities and to join us for our annual Christmas performances!
