"From turntablism projects alone, we estimate over 5,000kg of CO2 emissions have been saved. The model has allowed us to reach more pupils and classes—especially in rural areas—while upskilling teachers and embedding long-term capability in schools. Its success led to increased demand, prompting expansion of our music tech team, while also freeing senior staff to focus on strategic development." Leicestershire Music.

"We talked about equity and the challenges that the sector faces in providing musical learning to all. We noted that a focus on the creative industries and their value to the UK’s economy is dependent on a pipeline which doesn’t fracture because of a lack of funding and access." Bridget Whyte, Music Mark CEO.
