I've raised £1500 to enable Big Top Music to secure funding to provide accessible music making opportunities for young people and families with additional needs.

Story
Big Top Musical Adventures CIC works with families and children with severe and complex needs across the West Midlands.
Big Top Music deliver multi-sensory music workshops specifically devised for children with additional needs. The musical experiences within the sessions aim to encourage development in interaction and provide supported social opportunities for both the children and their parents/carers and siblings.
Access to meaningful leisure activities, especially within the arts are often compromised for children and young people with complex needs. Our sessions are designed to provide supportive environments for families to develop their confidence, empower them to make choices and share the fun, happiness and enjoyment that music provides.
Our sessions are currently running at full capacity and we know that there are more families waiting to join a Big Top Musical Adventure, who would benefit from this specialist provision.
We are looking to raise match funding to enable us to access further grants and awards.
"We are in awe of Rosie and Dom! They have the unique ability of including every child in the session, despite them all having very different needs. It's been really special to watch our group progress. Thank you Rosie and Dom for your understanding, enthusiasm and energy - we <3 Big Top Music!"
