Music Relief Foundation is a youth charity that is embedded with the culture of ensuring the wellbeing of the individual is always at the centre of our practices. With statements from young people such as:
Music Relief helps us to go to places that as young people we will not usually go to, to help us see a different life
Music Relief has helped me to build my confidence so that I can stand in front of people and speak my mind.
We continue to strive to progress further to support even more young people.
Fencing
We strongly believe in supporting young people with activities that will help them develop a balanced wellbeing. To this end, we decided to introduce fencing, a sporting activity as part of our service delivery, with an integral benefit of learning self-control.
Our coaches are all qualified and DBS-checked in the delivery of fencing to both primary and secondary school students. We are presently delivering our fencing program to two primary schools, Cypress Primary School and Whitehorse Manor Junior school as part of their after school club provision.
To request for fencing delivery in your school: Can you please complete the sign up form.
