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."
