Remember someone special
Celebrate a life, change many lives
By remembering one person’s life through a gift in their name, you can make a difference to the lives of many others. Thanks to their legacy, Nordoff and Robbins can make sure that everyone who could benefit from music therapy does. You can make a one off donation, set up a regular donation or create a tribute page.

Leave a gift in your will
Help people’s lives long into the future
Music isn’t a luxury. For some people, it’s their only way of connecting with the world. We want to create a future where music therapy is available to every child and adult whose life could be improved by that connection. Leaving a gift in your will is a powerful way to help build that future. Keep the beliefs you share with us alive and make a difference for generations to come.
