Paragon Music is an inclusive arts charity that transforms lives through music and dance

Paragon uses music and dance to encourage socialisation, self-expression, enhance confidence and wellbeing in people with additional support needs. The two main elements of Paragon’s programmes are participatory workshops and performances; which develop a diverse set of skills, including communication, teamwork and presentation. Group workshops give people of all ages and abilities the opportunity to learn an instrument, encourage creative learning and build family support networks. One-to-one sessions offer the chance for the people to further develop their skills with a mentor, signposting them to opportunities that are personally relevant to their career pathways and life goals.
