You never stop being a musician, and sometimes, support stays with you for life.
Over 50 years ago, Lauretta first connected with Help Musicians. We recently spoke with her and Lesley Garrett about their journeys in music and what it means to be backed when it counts.

Jazz saxophonist Harry Keeble almost lost it all during the pandemic. We helped him, and he's since run the Great North Run to help us help more musicians like him.
You can do the same. Sign up for a challenge in 2026 & support musicians across the UK: helpmusicians.org.uk/get-inv…

New year, new trainers…
I love being a trustee of @HelpMusicians and am so pleased to be doing this (admittedly ridiculous) challenge for them. Any donations are received with a huge amount of gratitude!

@classicjacko what a brilliant project! Many years ago, @HelpMusicians supported me when I found myself as carer for a terminally ill partner and was unable to take on concert engagements. They helped me to rebuild my life and return to professional work. Everyone please support!
