Key Changes Music Therapy

Key Changes Music Therapy Providing professional music therapy services to all ages For many who are referred to us, the powers of speech are at best limited.

Music therapy is a creative therapy, a highly effective largely non-verbal approach to personal therapy. It is increasingly recognised as a valuable part of the care of people, of all ages, who have sensory, physical, learning or neurological disabilities, or who have emotional or communication issues. Music therapy is used to help people work through emotional issues enabling them to cope better with their lives. The approach in music therapy, involves creating music in a live and spontaneous way, although musical skills are not required for someone to benefit from this special work. Over time, a trusting relationship can develop through the music which therapist and client create together. This, in turn, can facilitate physical, mental, social and emotional development.

All donations are greatly appreciated and enable those who can benefit from music therapy, young or old, to access our services. Donations can be made via our website:

We're delighted to introduce our new Patron.

James Clutton is Chief Executive and Director of Opera at Opera Holland Park and he'll be using his extensive knowledge and experience to advise our board on fundraising and business development.

James wanted to share a few words to introduce himself to everyone in the Key Changes Family.

"Music has always had the power to bring people together and to help us make sense of the world — that’s something I see every day in my work at Opera Holland Park and in all of our outreach commitments.

In my office, above my desk I have a sign that reads “For the Enrichment of Life”. It sums it up for me - it is about what music does and why we are involved with it. In many different ways and at many different levels. The power it has to change, to help, to open doors and to enrich.

What I love about Key Changes is that it takes music therapy and works with people across the whole life spectrum - to the people who need it most.

I am incredibly proud to become a patron of a charity that proves, in the most human and creative way, that music really can change lives."
