Barton Music Makers raises over £7,000 for OHMI

We’d like to offer our sincere thanks to our generous-hearted friends at Barton Music Makers for their continued support of OHMI. 

The charitable group, which was established in 2014, is based in Barton-under-Needwood in East Staffordshire. Alongside a community choir known as The Bar-Tones, the group holds musical events to raise funds for charity. OHMI has been chosen as a recipient of support on a number of occasions now and these sterling efforts have raised over £7,000. Most recently, £1,200 was raised which will allow us to purchase four tenor horn stands. 

Dr Stephen Taylor, Founder of Barton Music Makers and Choir Leader said "We are delighted to have supported OHMI for several years as our designated charity. From our perspective, it 'ticks all the boxes' in that it is based in The Midlands, helps the young and provides individuals with physical impairments an opportunity both to learn adapted instruments and to take an active role in and enjoy musical performance. 

“It has also been wonderful to welcome young musicians from OHMI to entertain our concert audiences. This is not only encouraging for the musicians but also helps to promote the charity to individuals who were, before then, unaware of its existence. We are very keen to help promote the brilliant work of OHMI whenever and however we can.”

The group offers its support in other ways too and we’re delighted to say that its performances have involved several of our OHMI Music-Makers.
