Music in Prisons - The Irene Taylor Trust

WELCOME

			"Delivering innovative music projects enhancing the rehabilitation and education of offenders and in so doing, enabling their reintegration into the community"
The Irene Taylor Trust ‘Music in Prisons’ has been working at the forefront of arts and rehabilitation since 1995, bringing creative music projects to men and women of all ages in prisons throughout the UK. The individuals we work with are some of the most socially disadvantaged and excluded, having faced a range of issues such as abuse, violence, drug abuse, mental health problems, exclusion from school and homelessness. By allowing prisoners the freedom to create and perform music, Music in Prisons raises their life aspirations, enabling them to play a positive role in their communities. By providing individuals with the chance to develop new skills, both musical and personal, Music in Prisons gives them the chance to leave prison with more than just the stigma of having been there.
