Welcome
Our purpose at Camden Music Trust is to enable participation in music activities by children and young people resident in or educated within the London Borough of Camden, and in particular assist those who face hardship. We support young people’s music making for the benefits this brings in itself and in their personal and wider educational development, such as resilience, team-building and self-discipline.

Current projects
Bursaries
We are currently supporting over 35 musically talented children from low income families, enabling them to fulfil their musical potential.
Music making groups
Making music with other people is what it’s all about. We help by providing additional funding for groups for young people on Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons in term time and on weekends during the holidays. The range of more than 35 ensembles, instrumental and choral, offers something for everyone.
Instrument loan
Having instruments available to lend means that no child needs to miss the opportunity to develop musical skills for lack of financial resources.
Camden Schools Music Festival
At this biennial event at the Royal Albert Hall, over 2000 children and young people, teachers, music tutors, musicians and composers perform a wonderful eclectic array of music.
