Everything we do, whether on the concert platform or in the community, is made possible by a network of generous individuals and organisations.
Our generous supporters subsidise course fees and help pay for rehearsal and concert venues. They fund tutors, music hire and bursaries as well as provide much-needed financial support for young musicians.
Our goal is to ensure that not a single young musician misses out on the opportunity to take part in the Norfolk County Youth Orchestra (NCYO).
It’s important to us to make certain that funding is in place to subsidise running costs and help young people who need a bursary.
