Superb!
The advice received from Making Music was exceptional. Our orchestra was involved in a most unfortunate incident which could have caused us great problems. The support and advice from Making Music was critical in solving the problem. My orchestra is extremely grateful. My only regret is that I can’t give ten stars - they deserve it!

Make sure you know what you need before you start
There was a lot of information & we needed to be sure that we were getting the right cover for our band. I’m still not sure if we need additional cover for items kept at our rehearsal venue as this is no longer covered by their insurance. I’m sure there has to be an easier way to calculate what cover we need but for now at least we have the public liability covered & that we the most important thing. I spoke to & emailed staff who were all very helpful & keen to support.

Everything you need to know
Fantastic free resources for members, great discounts on essentials such as insurance. Everything you need to know in one place for setting up and running a community music group. Expert knowledge and a really friendly, helpful team. Brilliant, thanks very much!

Whilst I eventually found my way around the site, it is tricky to find exactly what you are looking for when you start to use it.
