Adopt a Music Creator
Who can apply: Making Music member groups.
The National Federation of Music Societies, now known as Making Music, is a UK membership organization focused on supporting amateur music groups rather than a traditional grantmaking foundation. Its priorities center on helping community choirs, orchestras, bands, and other voluntary ensembles sustain music-making, improve access to participation, and strengthen local cultural life. Funding or support associated with the organization is typically oriented toward member groups and music participation initiatives, with an emphasis on practical, field-building assistance rather than large open grant programs.
Primarily membership-based support and programmatic assistance for amateur music groups; any financial support is likely to be targeted, small-scale, and tied to specific initiatives or member services rather than large, recurring grantmaking.
Check whether your group is a Making Music member, since support appears to be aimed at affiliated amateur ensembles. Review the website for member programs, resources, and any project-specific opportunities rather than expecting a standard open grant application process.
