Helloo!
Bit of background. Before joining RUMS music I was a little nervous, as I was unsure whether I would fit in. However, I quickly realised what a lovely bunch of people you all are! As community outreach officer I would want to promote our society to the wider community and spread our music happiness.
I believe all music should be completely inclusive and accessible. So how do I propose we do this?
• Celebrating diversity of music. For example, during various cultural/religious holiday periods we can perform music in-tune with those festivities, helping us to appreciate and celebrate each other.
• Collaboration (both in university and out). For example, reaching out to local schools promoting UCLMS through music and health workshops.
• UCLH volunteering, to bring healing onto the wards through music. This could be through recitals or actively getting patients and staff involved in music workshops.
• Fundraising for charities of our choice. This year we are raising money for Spectrum in the Spring Concert. This could either be continued into the next year or an alternative found, depending on majority votes. We can raise money through karaoke events, music auctions/competitions, opening events to all music lovers.
This list is not exhaustive, and I am all ears to any suggestions and collaborations. I aim to make RUMS music as inclusive, fun and engaging as we can possibly make it. Vote for me :)
Hi everyone :)
I’m running for community outreach officer this year because I believe everyone can benefit from the power of music! I’ve loved my time in Heartstrings and Accarhythmia so far and I believe everyone should have the opportunity to experience the fun and camaraderie that music and rehearsals helps to create, and I’d love to help share that joy.
In the current climate there are so many people who could benefit from the breathing space or break that even a small musical intermission could bring; I’d love to reach out to some local charities to see what we can offer, particularly the smaller charities who run musical performances in hospital and care environments so we can bring back hospital carolling and help the most isolated audiences! Plus, as well as busking at Christmas (my favourite RUMS Music moment this year!), I’d like to work together with the group managers to do more fundraising activities and events - maybe a little friendly intergroup competition for charity… Of course, if you have other suggestions or a particular cause you want to raise money for, I’m always open to ideas! Thank you :)
