We are delighted to announce today that Nordoff Robbins is one of The O2's three charities of choice for 2018.
Along with the BRIT School and mental health research charity MQ, Nordoff Robbins is looking forward to support from The O2 including fundraising, awareness raising and volunteers.
John Langford, VP and General Manager of The O2 said: “ Music is at the heart of our organisation so we are proud to be working with The BRIT School and Nordoff Robbins which are charities close to our hearts.”
“AEG recently supported World Mental Health Day to increase awareness of mental health amongst the business which led to an overwhelming vote from staff to have a mental health charity as our third chosen charity. We are delighted to have the opportunity to support MQ in 2018.”
Nordoff Robbins Chief Executive Julie Whelan said: “We are absolutely delighted to be a chosen charity of The O2 for 2018. At Nordoff Robbins we are committed to changing the lives of vulnerable and isolated people through the skilled use of music, and the support will be truly invaluable. Everything we raise through it will go towards supporting our life-changing work, helping us to reach even more people through music therapy. On behalf of everyone at Nordoff Robbins I would like to extend our warmest thanks to The O2, and we look forward to working closely with them in the year ahead."
