Donations of Musical Instruments for Local School Needed


Coach Beth

Recommended Posts

The Friends of Charter East Dulwich School are working with our fantastic Head of Music to find ways to provide more opportunities for young people at the school. One way we have identified that we can do this is through building a stock of musical instruments that can be borrowed free of charge by students who can't afford to purchase their own instrument.


While the school budget provides for the purchase of musical instruments that can be used on the school site in general music classes for instance, the restricted budget does not allow the school to purchase instruments that students can take home to practice on and use for individual instrumental lessons.


Our musical instrument loan scheme will support students who want music lessons but cannot afford to purchase or hire an instrument to take and practice on at home. The scheme will encourage these students to try an instrument without the substantial purchase cost. Lessons will be provided at a subsidised rate. Any students within the whole school community who cannot afford to commit to weekly instrumental lessons will benefit through increased access to instruments in our free extra-curricular clubs such as band club.


If you have a formally loved but now under used musical instrument gathering dust in a cupboard, we would love to hear from you! Please PM me or send an email to us at [email protected]

    • Happy to name agent and do understand that there are procedures to complain. I believe that it starts with a complaint to the estate agent and then you can go to the ombudsman. I am very unhopeful that this will achieve anything as it will be hard to prove what the intention of the agent was.  Also I don't want to name the agent at this stage so as not to open up myself to any legal issues. However it is an agent in the Village whish has many branches across London
    • Naming the agent isn't going to help in this case, this is down to the morals (lack of) of the buyer. I think it's always best, esp in a buyer's market, to keep details such as 'you're keen/ need to sell' to one's self, otherwise you're just giving the buyer leverage to pull a stunt like this...
    • I have tickets for tomorrow.  I'm off to do a rain dance.
    • Please name the agent and the company.  So sorry this happened to you. You could also refuse to pay the commission.
