Our Work In The Community

We work in the community with young people at risk of offending, including those not in education, employment, or training, care leavers, and people leaving prison. To deliver our work in the community we work with delivery and referral partners including youth organisations, probation and mental health services.

We have a wealth of experience in working with a range of learning and mental health needs and supporting participant progression with other services. We tailor our courses to have a focus personal development and employability skills by supporting participants to work towards a King’s Trust qualification alongside their music-making.

What we offer

A series of sessions led by Finding Rhythms music facilitators where groups of participants are challenged to write, record and produce original music. Our experienced musicians are able to facilitate meaningful conversations to support the personal development of participants.

How it works

  • One musician will work with up to 5 participants or two musicians will work with up to 10 participants over 6 or 12 sessions. They will bring all necessary equipment.
  • Sessions are scheduled on the day and time most suitable for the participant group.
  • Music will be recorded and can be expertly engineered in-house to be published on Bandcamp and/or Spotify.
  • This can be combined with an opportunity for participants to gain a King’s Trust award in Personal Development & Employability.

Music taster sessions

If you are new to creative interventions and would like to pilot the activity with your user group, we can provide taster sessions where participants are supported in their music making over one day. This can build the foundations for a longer intervention.
