Where music becomes a place to belong.
Sound Assembly is a community music organisation supporting refugees, care-leavers and other marginalised young people. Through DJing, radio, live performance and creative mentoring, we create spaces where young people can express themselves, rebuild confidence, connect with others and develop as artists.
How We Create Opportunity
DJing, radio, music production and live performance led by practising artists.
Learn Through Music
A welcoming creative community where young people collaborate, belong and grow together.
Build Through Community
From radio broadcasts and festival stages to mentoring and industry connections, we create pathways into the creative industries.
Progress Through Opportunity
Talent is everywhere. Opportunity isn't.
Too many talented young people face barriers that have nothing to do with their creativity. Conflict, displacement, exclusion and unequal access mean that talent is too often overlooked.
At Sound Assembly, we create spaces where young people can express themselves, rebuild confidence, connect with others and be recognised for what they create, not the circumstances they've faced. Through music, we open doors to professional experiences, lasting relationships and creative careers.
