What we do


What We Do At the Lancashire Music Hub

We believe that music has the power to inspire and change lives. So we work together to make sure that young people, teachers, musicians, schools and the wider community find great ways to make music and develop their individual skills and talents. In doing so, we’ are fulfilling our duty and our aim to deliver the outcomes of the Government’s National Plan for Music Education.

We do this through:

A massive range of music-making activities in and out of schools including:

  • In-school instrumental and singing opportunities
  • Out-of-school youth ensembles and orchestras, music groups and bands
  • Targeted programmes for primary, secondary, and special educational needs schools
  • Large-scale high-quality musical opportunities and experiences
  • Programmes for children and young people from challenging circumstances
  • Advanced progression for gifted and talented students
  • Inspirational workshops and masterclasses
