The Windsor-based company Inspire-works has been offering workshops in schools and workplaces across the UK since its founding by Mike and Jacqui Simpson in 2003. In those 22 years they've developed more than a dozen different workshops, broken two Guinness World Records, and thrice been finalists for Music Teacher Awards for Excellence. Workshops are currently led both in-person and online by a team of 18 facilitators (this author included) from 12 different countries.
Now they've developed ‘Drumbeatable’, a programme for educators working with 7- to 14-year-olds that is specifically designed to ‘[improve their] social and emotional resilience through group-drumming activities’. Drumbeatable allows teachers to lead their own fully customisable curriculum that Inspire-works recommends implementing over one term to a full school-year.
