Purpose Statement: Amplifying Neurodiverse Voices in Music
Our purpose is to empower neurodiverse artists to achieve their music creation aspirations. We achieve this by cultivating a supportive and inclusive community that provides tailored resources, mentorship, and opportunities. We work with neurodiverse and neurotypical musicians to provide a platform and the professional guidance needed to excel creatively, fostering a music landscape where neurodiversity is recognized, celebrated, and integrated as a powerful source of artistic innovation.
We are a non-profit Community of Interest Company.
"The music world has always been a haven for neurodivergent individuals like myself, a place where I often feel accepted and understood. However, it is disheartening that people with dyspraxia are not always encouraged to pursue an instrument. We bring so much to the table—perseverance, creativity, and empathy—that makes us ideal musicians. Music is not just about how fast your fingers can fly over keys or strings; it is about the emotion, passion, and dedication behind it. Whether it is joining a choir or picking up an instrument, the benefits are immense and go far beyond the notes themselves."

Our project The Resonance Hub aims to help music venues to better cater for neurodiverse musicians. One example is the technology we use to assist musicians who are uncomfortable in noisy environments where multiple loud sound sources can become overwhelming. Watch the video below to find out more.
