Quench Arts is seeking to appoint 2 freelance Young Music Leaders for our InSync programme, funded by Youth Music and running in Birmingham. InSync is the title of our Youth Music grant which covers several programmes of activity, including our Plugin project and OverDub Club project. Plugin is a creative music making programme based in Ardenleigh Forensic CAMHS, benefitting young people with mental health conditions aged 11-18. OverDub Club is a new programme which will be based in the community benefitting neurodivergent children aged 11-13. Both Plugin and OverDub Club projects focus on creative music making with young people, using accessible music technology and songwriting to achieve positive outcomes. One Young Music Leader role will be supporting our Plugin project and one will be supporting our OverDub Club project. Each Young Music Leader will work alongside one of Quench Arts' experienced Music Leaders, gradually taking on more responsibility for leading one-to-one and group sessions, with support and guidance. Our InSync programme has a particular focus on engaging neurodivergent young people. Through these 2 paid Young Music Leader opportunities we aim to support the emerging music leader workforce to develop the skills, confidence and knowledge to provide appropriate, neuro-inclusive opportunities to better support young people's engagement and progression. We also want to build awareness and evidence regarding how creative music-making can support the social and emotional development of neurodivergent young people. There will be training and inductions in June, with weekly project sessions running from June 2026 - February 2027. YMLs will be paid £61.80 per 3 hour session for a max of 26 sessions across June 2026 - February 2027, plus planning and evaluation and covering time to undertake training. Total Fee: £2224.80 max
