As part of Trafford Council we are proud to be working in partnership with all Trafford Primary schools and an increasing number of secondary schools. As well as high-quality music making opportunities in schools, we offer out-of-hours opportunities and progression routes through our Music Centres and Youth Orchestras. We also target support to enable access to music making for our most vulnerable families. We are delighted to be part of the Greater Manchester Music Hub and look forward to embracing the new opportunities it will bring to enhance the musical offer for all young people in our region.’
