Mission: To target young people in disadvantaged areas and use music to educate them about the pitfalls of violent crime
Funding: £26,000 from Nottingham City Council
Sound Inclusion was launched in April and replaced a previous project called The Inner City Youth Movement. The project targets young offenders and young people at risk of offending aged between 13 and 19 who are from deprived areas of Nottingham.
The project teaches them about the negative impact of knife, gun and violent crime and aims to diffuse territorial aggression within the city through a programme of music workshops. Sound Inclusion has a fully equipped studio, which the young people use to make music that they compose themselves.
