Welcome to Soundabout.
Soundabout exists to help people who have severe and complex learning difficulties. Through sound and music we help them develop their ability to communicate and interact with the world around them. Our work is divided into three main areas.
- Soundabout's staff development packages train staff in special needs schools and adults’ centres to use interactive musical techniques with their students and service users.
- The Soundabout Education Centre offers practical and theoretical seminars where professionals who work with young people can develop their knowledge, skills and understanding of the role that sound and music can play in developing creative communication.
- Our Saturdays for families and young adults and music festivals for schools and adults’ centres offer young people the opportunity to enjoy regular music making sessions at Soundabout’s beautiful headquarters at Thomley Barn near Oxford. We also offer music sessions for adults' centres.
