Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation
The Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation has announced that it will use the money generated from last year’s sale of the composer’s Picasso portrait - Angel Fernandez de Soto - to help fund a wide range of culture, heritage and art projects.
The objects of The Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation are to promote culture, heritage and the arts for the public benefit.
As
well as providing Musical Theatre scholarships, the Trustees welcome
applications to support projects in the areas of culture, heritage and the
arts and will consider funding towards projects that make a real and
ongoing difference to people’s lives.
The foundation has announced a £250,000 donation to UK charity Nordoff Robbins, which
specialises in providing music therapy sessions to people suffering from
autism, dementia, depression, stroke or terminal illness. It will use the money
to help maintain its music therapy unit at the BRIT school in Croydon and to
fund their work at the unit.
Other beneficiaries of the Foundation’s support announced recently include
Chickenshed, All Saints Church, Margaret
St, London,
Burghclere Primary School Band, Time Spanners, the Monega Association, Haringey
Shed and The Orpheus Centre.
