About
We believe in the power of singing to improve health and well-being for all.
Sing Up has always been a champion of the wider benefits of singing – for education, social and health outcomes.
​
As Sing Up's charitable arm, the Sing Up Foundation was created on Sing Up's 10th birthday with a new charitable purpose using singing as an aid to health and wellbeing.
Our Mission
We produce, promote and create opportunities for children and young people to improve their mental health and wellbeing through singing.
​
Our Vision
We believe in harnessing the power of singing to improve people's mental health and wellbeing. With 50% of mental health problems established by the age of 14 and 75% by the age of 24, we believe it's critical to focus on prevention by working with young people. The benefits of singing, especially in groups, are wide-ranging with extensive research supporting the physiological, social, psychological and behavioural benefits.
​
We create a healthier world through song.

More about Sing Up
The Sing Up Foundation is Sing Up’s charitable arm focused on producing research-informed charitable activities through fundraising, partnerships and innovation. Sing Up is an award-winning organisation which makes transformative change happen in schools to enhance children’s development and learning through the power of music and singing.
Developed by teachers and experts, we have been supporting schools’ singing and music making for fifteen years, and today Sing Up’s digital platform is used and loved by teachers and pupils around the world.
Our commitment to Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
We're committed to educating ourselves, addressing the barriers to equality, equity and diversity, and creating an inclusive environment. This matters to us because if we fail to reflect the wider society in all we do, we know we risk becoming less relevant and too narrow in our focus. We're always looking for new ways to engage with communities we haven’t connected with before.
​
Our workforce is diverse in many areas but underrepresented in others. We understand how people with different lived experience can enrich the work we do and for this reason, we welcome and encourage applications from Black, Asian, and ethnically diverse backgrounds, people with a lived experience of disability and people from the LGBTQIA+ community.
