Music Matters

Music Matters has proved to be very popular with the people we support and they have had great opportunities, not only to express themselves through music but also to share what skills they have learnt with the wider community".

(Mencap Team Manager)            

"At Music Matters NI, we appreciate the importance of music as a means of expression, communication and social opportunity for people of all ages and abilities. The service was founded in 2013 as a response to the lack of creative social services available to children, older people and vulnerable adults.

We aim to increase opportunities for individuals and groups to enjoy and explore music in the community, by becoming involved in singing, dancing, composition, recording and performance. Music Matters NI is centred on creativity, inclusion and fun!"
