'A community music and education charity based in the West End of Morecambe, working throughout Lancashire, the North West and internationally. We provide a year round programme that covers a breadth of music making activity involving people of all ages and all backgrounds. We are one of the longest running and most highly regarded community music and education organisations in the UK.'

‘Having lessons is one thing, but the skills a young musician gains from making music in a group are an important part of their development  as musicians, and as people. And they’ll have great fun too! Lancashire Music Service runs a network of Music Centres throughout the County where young musicians of all levels of experience can play together in bands and ensembles and sing in choirs, offering an ideal progression route from Whole Class Ensemble Tuition alongside opportunities for more advanced students.‘
