The Making Music North West region includes Cumbria, Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside and Cheshire.
We currently have over 200 members based in the NW, who enjoy the general advantage of Making Music membership, plus the local workshops, individual support, training and networking opportunities that we organise.
There is a North West Newsletter which is sent out three times a year and a regular e-bulletin featuring local news and funding.
One-to-one communication is also enjoyed through the many relationships that have developed between committee members and groups, and we are happy to help you find a group so you too can get involved.
The dedicated NW Regional Development Officer is on hand for advice and support.
REGIONAL COMMITTEE
The North West Regional Committee has 15 voluntary members who are based across the region and come together to meet 3 times a year. The purpose of the Committee is to support the North West members, helping them make the most of their Making Music membership and delivering national strategies within our regional context.
If you would like to come along to one of the meetings or wish to join the Committee you’d be made very welcome. To find out more, please get in touch with the Committee Chair for an informal chat.
