## Objectives and achievements. 

Our aims for 24/25 were to continue to reach out through the network of music teachers to encourage them to approach us where they identify developing musical talent and financial need then we can commence granting awards under the terms of the constitution. While this aim is correct, we have struggled to achieve that this during the year. As we go forward, we intend to use social media more to reach out to the needy. However, the current economic crisis in the country has resulted in the public having less disposable income to support charities. 

During 2024/5 we have awarded grants for:- 

- Part purchase of a marimba 

- Support for examination fees 

- Support for tuition fees 

- Support for staff fees running an introductory percussion workshop to attract new players. 

- Provision of percussion equipment. 

Our PHPA Adams xylophone remain fully committed to free loans to music students to enable them to reinforce and extend their learning at home.
