Charity and Community
Charitable Giving - The 'La La fund'
Through its work, PlayMusic-Hampshire has established a charitable giving programme in
memory of a loving carer. Each term PlayMusicians choose a charity eg Barnardos ' The Big Toddle' - a sponsored walk or dance which helps to raise money for children less fortunate than ourselves.
For further information or for a sponsorship form visit the Barnardos website here.

Why not have a look at Dance of Delight online shop for inspirational musical ideas.
Dance of Delight was started by Alison and Mark Harmer, because we wanted to help people enjoy making music - out of a deeply-held belief that music is not something just to enjoy passively but something that everyone could actively "do". Dance of Delight is the site for our online music business, and there's a musical thread through most of our activities: we are professionally involved in music education, live and recorded performance, organisation consulting, audio and video recording and editing, and musical composition.
Children's Information Service - a county by county guide providing information and signposting for allissues affecting children, families and young people from childcare, education and activities to family support including money, housing and health.
