Providing opportunities for people with learning difficulties and special needs to acquire skills with music and the performing arts. Providing musical entertainment Nationwide.
Over the duration of the 4 year project the Notables played at numerous public & charity events both locally and Nationwide. The Notables Outreach band has provided regular music workshops / musical entertainment and had a significant community reach and an estimated positive impact on over 400 disabled / disadvantaged people of all ages.
Since lottery funding finished we have managed to partially sustain regular outreach work at many of the centres, schools and venues listed below by means of voluntary donation per visit.
