LUUMIC wins Riley Award for Community Impact

We’re thrilled to share that Leeds University Union Music Impact in the Community (LUUMIC)—led by our music students—has won the Riley Award for Community Impact!

LUU Music Impact in the Community (LUUMIC) work in and around Leeds to bring together different social groups through music workshops, projects and sessions run by our volunteers.

LUUMIC collaborate with a wide range of organisations such as schools, care homes and community groups, as well as working with demographics such as adults and children with physical and learning disabilities, refugee, asylum seekers and the LGBTQ+ community. We help such groups spark creativity and encourage social interactions through music, improving their confidence, language and communication skills based on informal practices of music therapy.

Huge congratulations to LUUMIC on this well-deserved recognition!
