Drum Works Cic

Drum Works is a social music project that uses drumming as a tool to inspire creativity, build social cohesion and empower young people to direct their own futures. Around 600 people take part every week through five partner schools in east London, two community programmes in Walthamstow and Barking, and three progression ensembles. Through high-quality, engaging music sessions led by experienced professional musicians we develop participants’ confidence, break down social barriers and build a supportive community where everyone can thrive. Opportunities to perform at high-profile events demonstrate that positive action, hard work and commitment achieve incredible results. Participants who wish to develop their skills further can join our progression ensembles, and an Assistant programme offers professional experience, training and mentoring for older members.
