  • Your emphasis on inclusion and excellence in seemingly equal measure is really remarkable. The performances were much more joyful and committed than anything we have seen before from people of that age and experience. Your choice of music, the type of arranging and the personalities of the people you employ clearly works very well and is something of a special formula.

  • As someone who has always taken a sympathetic and supportive interest in our daughter (whom you know to be severely /profoundly deaf ) we thought you would want to know that she has won a National competition for deaf musicians! Her prize includes a 2 day Masterclass, taught by specialists of national repute and then she is playing at the Birmingham Rep Theatre. Well done Mrs Turner and Music For Life!

  • May I take this opportunity to say how very happy and impressed we are with the level of care and motivational input given to young musicians by ALL of your staff. Samuel can be easily overwhelmed by new situations but with MfL he has blossomed and grown in confidence. Music for Life are to be highly recommended as a professional, motivational and inspiring organisation with talented and inspirational tutors who really care about the child.

  • You have helped Adam enormously with his music and he has grown with confidence since you started the band.

    S Grinton, parent, Neston.

  • It was an honour playing with such great people and it was in many ways the main driving force keeping me motivated to play music. Thanks for everything you’ve done for me.

    Ben Everitt, former Music for Life student

  • I really do thank Music for Life for the tuition and support you have given both Matthew and Jonny over the last 7 years. Jonny continues with his guitar, he is a member of a band and they play in various venues in Liverpool. (O2 Academy, the Picket) . Thank you and your team.

    G & S Davies, parents, Neston

Music for Life is an innovative, not for profit organisation which was set up to support schools and parents across Cheshire in offering opportunities for young people to learn a musical instrument successfully and to inspire them to engage with music making throughout their school life and beyond.

Music for Life receives no public funding. As such, setting it up was a labour of love which necessitated the development of a totally unique, not-for-profit business model which could would meet the needs of schools, children, independent music tutors and parents and could do so on an “impossible” budget! This we have done through unwavering devotion and dedication of all involved in Music for Life to the ideals and aims of the project and this has enabled us to overcome a number of major challenges so far. We have never advertised services and schools, tutors and parents come to us because they can see we offer something special in terms of integrity, value for money and quality.

Our track record of success is now well established. Two national reports on the quality of school music services judged Music for Life to be an “Outstanding” service, exam results through the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music are consistently excellent, and the number of children who drop out of lessons is tiny. Many former students working as professional musicians or music teachers at the highest levels and many more simply telling us that their involvement in Music for Life was one of their most important formative experiences growing up. In fact, I now regularly come across children who are starting lessons with us whose parents learned with us themselves, and we have five former students working with us as music tutors themselves! How time flies…….!!
