Who Are We?
Lewisham Music is a music education
charity and the Music Education Hub for the London Borough of Lewisham,

people both within schools and in the community.
Our Hub network comprises partner
organisations including The Albany, London Philharmonic Orchestra, London

We became an independent charity in 2017,
In June 2019 we moved into new premises
at The Fellowship, Bellingham, a new cultural centre which includes a cinema
and live music, theatre and comedy venue. Providing learning opportunities to
young people and supporting music education in schools across the borough
remains a key part of our mission, however our new base gives us a fantastic
opportunity for us to expand our offer and the communities with which we
engage, creating a vibrant hub for music-making in Bellingham and beyond.
