 Take It Away is an Arts Council initiative designed to help more people get involved in learning and playing music. The scheme allows individuals to apply for a loan of up to £2,000 for the purchase of any kind of musical instrument, and pay it back in nine monthly instalments, completely interest free. It is open to everyone (over the age of 18), but primarily designed to help those who might otherwise be unable to afford an instrument appropriate for their needs.
The scheme has been set up to encourage children and young people to develop their interests and skills in music making, to inspire new players of all ages to begin learning an instrument and to enable those on lower incomes to acquire an instrument appropriate to their needs (or the needs of their children). Take it away is only available through registered outlets nine of which are in the Northeast region. For details please see participating stores.
