Reaching SEN teens through music
Donation protected
We are Suzanne and Tracy, otherwise known as Singing Hands - the UK's most popular MAKATON singing and signing duo.
Our work was inspired by our children Miles and Ella who were born with addtional needs. Through our music and videos, and work at Great Ormond Street and Evalina's Children Hospitals, we reach millions of pre-school and primary school aged children. Our 'Wheels on the Bus' video alone has had 9 million views - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0peZ5AN5vs8
But we know through our kids, who are now teenagers, that teens and young adults who struggle to communicate are not being catered for with accessible music.
So we need your help to create a CD/DVD of pop songs on the theme of friendship and happiness - to reach this very special age group.
We have launched a Pledge Music campaign which allows people to pre-order the items and purchase various other items (www.pledgemusic.com/projects/singinghands), but the project is reliant on further contributions to make it happen.
We neeed to raise £10,000 by 18th June so that we can go into production the album and DVD.
If every one of our followers gave £5 - the price of a good cup of coffee - we would easily hit this target.
Thank you for any support you can give!
