The Music Works transforms young people’s lives through music.
- Evidence suggest music therapy can help with management of mood disturbances and is a useful adjunct to relieve depression and anxiety.
- Key Changes is their 10-week programme which supports young people with anxiety or depression helping them to discover their music potential, build confidence, connect with others and explore the difference music can make in their lives.
- TMW’s aim is to improve young people’s mental health and wellbeing, increase the number of young people referred to the service, increase awareness of and access to music coping strategies and increase the confidence of social prescribers in the impact of creative arts prescription.
- Chimo has funded The Music Works for 5 years to deliver the Key Changes programme.
