About the Organisation

Orchestras for All (OFA) believes that all young people should be able to access the life-changing benefits of group music-making, whatever their circumstances. Our charity breaks down barriers to music-making – logistical, financial, geographical, personal and cultural – across the UK, with the overarching objectives that:

1. Young people have improved ensemble skills, improved musical creativity (performing and composing), and strengthened musical identity.
2. Young people have improved confidence, improved teamwork skills, improved communication skills, and broader aspirations.
3. More young people with barriers are accessing high‑quality ensemble music-making opportunities through a more inclusive, diverse, equitable and accessible sector.
4. Young people gain equitable access to diverse career opportunities, creating a workforce that reflects UK society.
5. Young people’s voices are heard in key decision‑making processes.

To achieve this, OFA’s currently strategy is focusing on four core programmes:

1. National Orchestra for All – our free, inclusive, national youth orchestra.
2. Modulo – kickstarting inclusive music‑making in state secondary schools and local communities across the UK.
3. Music Leadership Training – sharing our practice.
4. Youth Leadership – empowering young people to take ownership and be heard throughout our organisation.
