Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

During the autumn of 2022 Music In Mind began a consultation period with a number of local councils, Arts Council England and The National Heritage lottery Fund regarding a coastal voice project to capture the music and heritage in the accent of a number of England’s coastal towns. This resulted in funding from North East Lincolnshire Council for a 6 week pilot project in early 2023 with 5 schools, Grimsby based arts organization Our Big Picture and local arts practitioners. The success of the pilot project has led to the development of a larger Heritage Lottery bid for a wider coastal project with 3 councils in Sefton, North East Lincolnshire and Dover for 2024.

Music In Mind was delighted to be asked by Culture Liverpool to help arrange the music and performers for the opening concert of Liverpool’s Eurovision Festival. The ‘Eurotopia’ concert featured well-known pop artists from the past and present, Ukrainian musicians currently living in the UK plus musicians from the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and Liverpool Brass. June 2023 also included a presentation and performance of Music In Mind’s award winning ‘Behind Doors’ piece at the national Housing Conference at Manchester Central.

Music In Mind has continued to work with The Brain Charity on the innovative 'Music Makes Us Happy' dementia project. A Music in Mind singing specialist worked alongside a speech therapist to deliver singing workshops to people living with dementia with the aim of using music to prolong speech.

The remaining months of 2023 were spent developing the Heritage Lottery bid with Sefton, NELC and Dover councils for submission in autumn 2023 and a potential project start in early 2024.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
