Resources

CMW is dedicated to raising the standards of community music delivery across Wales. We have over 20 years experience and are committed to sharing best practice. In line with our work in the field we are building resources to help other organisations who either currently use, or wish to music as part of their programme of activity.

In this section you will find useful information and resources on community music delivery. This includes our Community Music Activity Resource Pack which has a wealth of information on running community music projects.

This pack was designed for organisations already using, or wishing to use music as an engagement tool.

 CMW embarked on this initiative in 2009, in response to an increase in requests made to us for advice and guidance from community groups.  We carried out consultation across Wales with organisations, community music practitioners, Local Authorities and advisors. The aim was to research the extent to which music is currently being used within local communities, what level of training the practitioners have received and what barriers exist preventing the use of community music.

 This Community Music Activity Resource Pack aims to help identify suitable music activity for organisations through presenting case studies of different activities and by looking at the practical steps needed in setting up and organising this work. There is also a Further Reading section signposting to other organisations for additional information such as: Child Protection, Health and Safety, and Musician’s Union.

 You can download the pack here or hard copies are available on request. Contact us for further information.

We will be adding to this section periodically, if you wish to be notified of any new additions you can subscribe to our e bulletin and we will let you know of new developments.
