The Music Industry Trusts Award was established in 1992 to raise money for two very worthwhile charities, the BRIT Trust and Nordoff Robbins. With your generosity and support we hope we can continue to do so for years to come.

The BRIT Trust was founded in 1989 and is entirely funded by the music industry. The Trust's mission is to encourage young people in the exploration and pursuit of educational, cultural or therapeutic benefits emanating from music. Since its inception, £25m has been bestowed by the Trust, half of which has been received by the BRIT School. The BRIT Trust has also funded many other music related charities and projects including Key for Life, MIND, Music For My Mind, Music Support and Nordoff Robbins.  

Nordoff Robbins is the largest independent music therapy charity in the UK, dedicated to enriching the lives of people affected by life limiting illness, isolation or disability. It supports thousands of people through its own centres and in partnership with organisations including care homes, schools and hospitals. Its expert music therapists can help people with dementia reconnect with family members, children with autism to speak for the first time and give those living with mental health problems moments of genuine calm and peace. 

Thank you.
