I was in the throes of a busy career when I broke both my legs. Help Musicians swooped in and got me back on track.

This year, Help Musicians is taking part in the Big Give Christmas Challenge.

Thanks to the generous support of the Bryan Adams Foundation, Reed Foundation, and Frances Magee, every donation that we receive on during Big Give week will be doubled. 

The Big Give week takes place between Tuesday 1 December and Tuesday 8 December.

Gifts made on our Big Give page during that week will be doubled in size and have twice the impact for musicians across the UK. You can pledge to make your gift today. 

  • £25 becomes £50, which could help more musicians experiencing illness or physical health issues by supporting towards the cost of mobility aids, medical equipment or instrument adaptations. 
  • £50 becomes £100, which could help a musician facing sudden injury by supporting with crucial advice and guidance delivered by a dedicated case worker.
  • £150 becomes £300, which could help a musician struggling to pay medical treatment by contributing towards a tailored support package.

Your donation means that these services will remain available to those who need us. 

By donating during our Big Give week, your donation will be doubled. Your kindness will go twice as far. And your support could alter the course of a musician’s life for the better.

Our 100% pledge means that 100% of every donation we receive goes directly to musicians in need, and don’t forget that online donations made through help​musi​cians​.org​.uk/​b​i​ggive between 1 – 8 December will be matched.
