Carrie and David Grant

Carrie and David Grant said: “We’re parents to four neurodivergent children. We’re all too aware that many of our most vulnerable children and adults often struggle to access the therapies they so desperately need. We’re also aware of the power of music to help and to heal.

“That’s why we’re supporting the work of the UK’s largest music therapy, Nordoff and Robbins. The therapists work with people living with disability, illness or facing isolation to realise their true potential through music. We have seen their work first-hand – it truly is incredible and effective, transforming the lives of those who have access to these sessions. Music is what we live, breathe and rely on. It’s our escape, our expression and our language.”
