6 Organisations Tackling Underrepresentation in the Music Industry

In 2020 we launched the Youth Music Incubator Fund to enable organisations to create sustainable, meaningful career opportunities for young people aged 18-25, especially those who are currently underrepresented in the sector. We wanted to help creative employers support emerging talent and benefit from a more diverse workforce. 

Since then, we've given out more than £2.3 million to businesses, collectives and not-for-profits working in the music industries to make that happen, that have created over 800 paid work opportunities created at the Real Living Wage, for young people across England, Scotland and Wales.

Check out some of the ways organisations have used the funding to tackle underrepresentation in the industry below.
