Our personal message:

Please support Symphonic Cycle - a pitch perfect plea!

Symphonic Cycle, the Royal Philharmonic's cycling posse, is cycling Lands End to John O'Groats, the 'Crescend-to-endo', this summer to help fund music therapy sessions and creative workshops for disabled people in the UK.

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Leonard Cheshire Disability have worked together for the last three years, raising funds to offer disabled people the chance for communication and self-expression through creative music workshops. Although many of the participants have never even picked up a musical instrument before, these workshops place an emphasis firmly on ability over disability. They promote inclusion and enjoyment, and with dramatic results - it's harmonious and heart-warming!

As musicians, education is an important part of our lives, so it means a lot to us to raise money to enable disabled people to enjoy music. Everyone in Symphonic Cycle is proud to be giving up their time to raise money in support of this fantastic organization and its musical activities. Please give whatever you can to help us raise money for Leonard Cheshire Disability.

Thanks
