TRANSFORMING children THROUGH SINGING
Voices Foundation is a national charity which uses the power of singing to improve the lives of children and young people in the UK.
Our Mission
Voices Foundation helps children and young people aged 0-18 to learn to sing and develop as musicians.
We want to make sure that no child is left out when it comes to learning to be a musician. It is proven that children who engage in high quality, regular musical learning from an early age gain musical, intellectual, emotional and social advantages. However, many children miss out on these benefits as they do not have access to any form of music education.
We help teachers and schools to ensure that music is an integral part of education from the early years. Voices Foundation wants to give every child the chance to discover their musical talent so that they are part of the next generation of musicians.
What we DO
Voices Foundation is a national music education charity working closely with schools, academies, Music Education Hubs and partners to deliver sustainable solutions for the provision of a rigorous and effective music education through singing.
