“Excellent scheme which enabled us to purchase a piano for practising for our son which has made a big difference to his rate of progress.”
“Thank you for enabling me to enjoy playing again. It was becoming difficult with my worn out Clavinova and now I can enjoy myself more easily again.”
“The Take it away scheme has enriched my life and given me more confidence to start my own Jazz Band.”
“The scheme enabled me to play instruments I’d only ever dreamed of. Without it, it would have remained only a dream.”
“It's a brilliant scheme – as a parent you are often buying big ticket items for more than one child – lap top, etc. This scheme made our purchase of the flute possible. And the lack of interest means you don't feel 'fleeced' like you usually do with credit agreements. Fantastic.”
“Thank you for thinking of those who wish to take up music! It really makes a huge difference not to be forced to rent or buy second hand. It gives options as the musician gets more experienced.”
