Mission Statement
We create life-changing music programmes with survivors of war, torture and persecution. We work with people in exile, in displaced communities, refugee camps and post conflict settings to improve mental health and well-being, to bring communities together and to speak out against human rights abuses.
Activities
Our amazing music facilitators from around the world deliver creative sessions with refugees, asylum seekers and Roma people. We also provide programme consultancy, refugee & trauma awareness, talks, performances and commissions. Our unique approach significantly reduces physical and emotional trauma and creates a sense of family for people who are alone. Our specialist team, most of whom have experienced the effects of war, are trained to support children, young people and adult survivors to improve well-being through creativity in many different contexts.
