Sound Communities

Creatively Empowering Youth Voice

[Steve Darling MP @SteveDarlingMP]

Sound Communities is an incredible organisation in Torbay which supports some of our most vulnerable young people into employment or education. I spoke in Parliament yesterday in the Debate on Youth Unemployment to celebrate their work and to call for long-term funding for such organisations to secure the opportunities and the futures that these young people deserve.

Sound Futures supported 6 young people to bring an idea to life: our community is stronger with access to music 🎵

On 3rd Sept, 70+ people came to The Palace Theatre Paignton for the Sound Futures Takeover: Music Matters, planned and delivered by young people.

We had a great time in the sun at the Torbay English Riviera Airshow this weekend! ☀️
It was so good to see our young people grow in confidence with their performance skills and start building a real following🤘
Thank you to the Airshow for having us! @ace_national @ace_southwest

Have you read this research showing a shocking lack of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds working in the creative industries?

We work to raise aspirations & provide progression opportunities so our participants can see beyond their limitations.
