Harmony Works Trust

Harmony Works is built on partnership:

1. We work with the needs, ideas and creativity of all young people to ensure our activities are relevant and exciting for them.
2. We collaborate with schools, families and local communities to explore how music can embrace and enhance their routines and rituals.
3. We build a diverse partnership, locally and nationally, to create and deliver relevant and impactful musical learning.
4. We ensure our opportunities are accessible to all.

Harmony Works will:

• Act as a pathway to music – by providing accessible routes to music education, Harmony Works will make sure everyone has a chance to unlock their musical potential.
• Inspire generations – through the joint magic of music and heritage.
• Give life to forgotten heritage – by repurposing a historic building and giving it a new purpose, we’re breathing new life into our city’s heritage, while minimising our environmental impact in the process.
• Increase access – we aim to widen access to music education, reflecting the diversity of the region’s young people.
• Expand horizons – we’re not just a place, we’re a platform that extends the reach of our co-occupiers and collaborators.
• Improve wellbeing – from families to communities, we’re here to nurture education and wellbeing for generations, fostering growth and connection.
  • Act as a magnet for talent – we aim to nurture talent and attract top-tier musicians, drawing them to our region as performers and educators.
  • Revive Castlegate – Harmony Works will act as a vital force in the regeneration of Castlegate, bringing with it vital footfall as it develops as a hub of culture and community.
  • Aid recovery and renewal – in a time of recovery for Castlegate, Harmony Works steps up as a beacon of hope and progress, rejuvenating the region with a fresh sense of possibility.

Together, we’re creating impact that spans generations, genres, and communities.
