Survey of UK community music organisations

Sound Sense has joined forces with University of Sheffield and fellow research partners University of York St John, SoundLincs, Free University of Bolzano and Kenyatta University, Nairobi in a research project to assess the social impact of community music activities. We would love any member of a community music organisation to take part in this project and help us map activity taking place.
