Music is a big part of what makes Christmas special. It is the time of year when we are most likely to hear live music, whether that is at a concert or passing carol singers in the street. But those spending the festive season in hospitals and care homes often miss out on this important part of Christmas that makes it so magical.

We need you to help us to bring Joy Through Live Music to people in hospitals and care settings over the festive season. Our musicians reduce loneliness and isolation whilst creating special memories and moments - you can make more people’s Christmas musical this year.

“A very special day leading up to Christmas, which made some patients’ days as so many of them are on their own. It really delivered a wonderful treat to patients who may not see next Christmas.”

– St Columba’s Hospice, Edinburgh

♬ £15 will pay for one person to experience live music in their healthcare setting.

♬ £300 will pay for an entire live music session in a hospital, hospice, care home, day centre, special school or community service.

Your donations will be used to help people not just at Christmas, but to keep the music flowing all year round. In 2019 so far we have delivered almost 5,000 live music sessions across the UK; this is all thanks to the generosity of our supporters and we want to continue this for 2020. Every penny helps to bring Joy Through Live Music.
