Membership Benefits |

|
Making Music is so much more than an insurance provider! These are just a few of the things that membership can offer your group:
Information and advice
- Regional voluntary committees and Regional Development Officers offering advice and support and helping you access local information, funding, training & development opportunities.
- A dedicated Membership Services Team available by phone or email Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm to offer advice and support.
- Around seventy Information Sheets and 'How to' guides on anything from 'How to chair a music group' to 'How to produce a cross arts project'; from information on the Licensing Act and how it impacts on voluntary music making, to tips for developing an equal opportunities policy; and from understanding Gift Aid and how it can work for you, to useful guidance on how to promote your activities through your local media.
- A resource of Youth Case Studies, invaluable if you are thinking of developing a project or longer term involvement with young people for your group.
- Our tri-annual journal Highnotes bringing you news and information from the world of voluntary music making.
- Access a UK-wide network of voluntary music groups across all genres - whatever your plans or problems it is likely you find another member who has been there before!
Financial support
- An unbeatable Insurance Scheme covering Public Liability, Employer's Liability, property and, uniquely, abandonment of concerts and workshops.
- A simple facility to fulfil your obligations to pay Performing Rights payments through Making Music without the need for filling in a huge number of forms.
- An interest-free Staging and Instrument Loan.
- A low cost CRB checking service if your work involves young people.
- Discounted bookings schemes ideal if you engage professional soloists or recitalists.
- Access to some regional grants - and help with funding applications.
Artistic support
- Our Music Exchange Scheme will help you borrow the musical parts and scores you need at a fraction of the publishers' costs and loan your own holdings to other members to make money for your group.
- The Programme Note Bank will help you compile your concert programmes.
- Our online Repertoire Service will enable you to plan the content of your performances with up-to-date information.
