Music for a Generation in Hertfordshire

Costs and savings

The project was funded initially by Hertfordshire Community Wellbeing Board and How to Thrive. Hertfordshire Adult & Family Learning Service identified the project, not long after it had began, as something that they could fund and at that point became a joint funder. Officer time from the services referred to above, for developing and leading the project are not included in the costs as they were given ‘in kind’.

This can be broken down to an average of £267 per session. On average, 27 individuals participated in the project per session suggesting a cost of £9.80 per person. This seems like a really affordable and sustainable expenditure given the impact outcomes evidenced as part of this pilot.
