To most observers, music is an underfunded subject, often resulting in students missing out on experimentation to broaden their interests. Readipop, established in 1998, offers young people – from primary age up to university – in the Reading and Thames Valley area the chance to engage interactively with music.
Youth clubs, community bands, festivals, a record label and outreach are ways that Readipop delivers its services. Based in a studio hub in Reading, music leaders offer drop-ins for young people to take part in a variety of programmes – but the outreach also extends into schools to engage directly with students and teachers.
