Youth Music is launching its Give a Gig week asking music lovers to put on fundraising events to support young people facing challenging circumstances.
Running from 24-31 March, the charity hopes to see 100 gigs take place over the UK.
Youth Music is calling on musicians, promoters, venue owners, or anyone who wants to use the power of music to help young people to put on an event.
The organisation offers a support pack with advice on planning and promoting gigs, as well as an online poster generator for publicising the event.
Matt Griffiths, Youth Music chief executive officer (CEO), said: ‘Musicians, bands and those making music for fun know first-hand the personal and social benefits of music-making and how it can help overcome really difficult situations.
‘I urge you to get involved and put on a gig so that many more young people have that opportunity too.’
