​​Hello, we are the Songwriting Charity and we're very pleased to meet you!

Established in 2011, The work of the Songwriting Charity is dedicated to the empowerment of young people and communities through the art and craft of songwriting, boosting confidence, self esteem and mental health through participation.

Through our intensive one day themed songwriting workshops we inspire the next generation of songwriters and storytellers to make sense of the world we live and learn in.

We have a lot of fun, experimenting with styles, genre, voice, sound and film, removing barriers to music creation and participation by making the whole process accessible for all through the power and flexibility afforded to us by music technology.

Do enjoy looking around our website and have a good listen to the songs created by the young people we work with in a full range of schools and community groups all over the UK.

"I just want to email you the biggest THANK YOU!

The children looked like they had the best time with you during the last 2 days, so thank you so much for coming in and working with them. Just seeing their little faces light up when they realised that was them on the track really was wonderful to see. The way they engaged with you too was just amazing to watch. 

We really do hope we get to work with you again sometime soon.  Thank you for giving them such a wonderful opportunity, the final tracks sound incredible."
