CLASSICAL MUSIC ROCKS
CMR aims to enable children in Norfolk, Suffolk and surrounding areas to hear live classical music in their school setting, inspire and interest to hear more classical music, encourage them to learn an instrument, provide free short recitals in schools and other venues, create links and initiate community collaborations, and advocate for children to have more access to live classical music.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity survived a period where closure seemed almost certain, though it remains precariously funded with minimal support from its main base. While funds are currently sufficient to deliver the programme until April, the trustees note a need to rebuild the team and secure new funding to sustain operations beyond that point.
