This year Nucleo is celebrating our 10-year anniversary. Looking back it is incredible to think that we started with just four aspiring young musicians in our orchestra. Today approximately 400 children take part in our free programme, with teaching offered on 14 different types of instrument. So whether their passion is for strings, wind, brass or percussion, there is something for everyone.
Your generosity has meant that each one of these 400 young musicians has been provided with a free, good-quality instrument. You have also provided the means to maintain the condition of these instruments throughout the year.
The cost of purchasing an instrument and paying for necessary accessories such as strings, reeds and rosins is sadly rising in line with the current rising living costs. If we weren’t able to provide these instruments for free then this cost could be a significant barrier to access for many. By supporting this campaign you have helped to break down this barrier, ensuring that our young musicians don’t miss out on an opportunity to discover a passion, uncover a talent and forge new friendships.
Thank you for helping us to use music to change children’s lives for the better.
