Welcome to the Ukulele Project website. Not just for ukulele players, for anyone interested in ending loneliness and promoting wellbeing

school projects

We are passionate about helping children discover their confidence, imagination and potential through music.
Music For everyone

Our Mission

Our mission is to combat loneliness, build confidence and promote wellbeing. We are passionate about the power of music to build strong communities so aim to support music making for EVERYONE!
We believe that if children have access to a fun, inclusive music programme at school that they are much more likely to consider joining a ukulele club during lonely periods in their lives ie university
There are a huge number of health benefits linked to music making and we are passionate about improving children's mental health

Teaching Resources

Our Resource has been built by music teachers in the field so the pieces have been tried and tested by students in classrooms
Between us we have over 30 years experience teaching ukulele to children from as young as 3 years old
Our resource includes pieces donated by professional ukulele artists and written especially for the ukulele
We know how time consuming lesson planning can be so our aim with the resource is to make it as easy as possible for teachers to dive into and either use our ready built curriculum or build their own
Events and Competitions - be notified first of competitions and events ie National Ukulele and Teachers Workshops
