Nordoff Robbins Scotland

Nordoff and Robbins is the UK’s largest music therapy charity, with a unique approach shaped by more than 60 years of practice.

Through the power of music, they break through the barriers caused by life-limiting illness, disability, and social isolation.

They do this through providing music therapy to people across the UK, whilst also training the music therapists of the future and funding research to measure and improve the impact of their work.

Music therapy is the act of making music collaboratively, and it can help people with all kinds of conditions: from autism to dementia, learning difficulties to brain injuries, life-limiting illnesses to mental health issues, grief, and trauma. Nordoff and Robbins music therapists use the power of music to create space for people to express themselves and find connection in society.
