Will Lawton’s Rhythm Practice

Local music therapist Will Lawton plans to open a Music Therapy practice in early 2021, based at The Pound Arts Centre in Corsham. The service will help develop a positive change in the well-being of individuals of all ages through the creative use of music, facilitated by trained music therapists. Can you help Will reach his target?

In total, ยฃ8500 is required in order to equip a room with high quality music instruments and equipment. ยฃ6000 of this target has already been pledged by the council and a school, leaving an outstanding balance of ยฃ2500. This final balance must be found in order to unlock the rest of the grant funding to bring this project to life.

It would be unfair on anyoneโ€ฆ

My River, New Single from M3G

Tomorrow, Friday 2nd October, sees a new single from Chippenham indie folk singer-songwriter Meg Hoy, or M3G, and it’s called My Riverโ€ฆ.. If you deem songwriters using rivers as metaphors as a bit clichรฉ these days, from Springsteen’s safety net for the burdens of youthful relationships, or Joni Mitchell’s desperate escapism, to Billy Joelโ€™s spiritualโ€ฆ
