MMF’s Youth Council

MMF’s Youth Council is made up of young musicians aged 11-18 who take part in MMF activities. They meet every 4-6 weeks at MMF’s South Wimbledon Music Centre. The Council lead projects, events & collaborations while shaping MMF’s strategy and policy.

The Council gives young people the chance to develop leadership and presentation skills, learn how to run and promote events, and collaborate with other young musicians.
