SGS works with disadvantaged young people (aged 11-24) from South London to provide positive pathways through engaging music opportunities.

Story

School Ground Sounds aims to transform
the lives of young people through music. 
Operating in Brixton and focussing on those from lower income
backgrounds, it provides song-writing and music-making opportunities to 11 – 16
year olds – aiming to build confidence and valuable life skills as well as
building positive engagement and keeping them off the increasingly dangerous
streets.  For the 16 – 24 age bracket, it
provides opportunities and support to aspiring musicians through the mentoring
programme; Grit School (a seven-week crash course in the music industry); and
the EP Accelerator programme.  It provides
young people with contacts, insights, skills and confidence to pursue their
dreams.  With the decline in priority and
funding given to music in state schools the demand for what SGS offers is
greater than ever.
