Offaly/ Westmeath Music Education Partnership is 'making music happen' guided by the values of equality of access, quality of experience, partnerships, creativity and sustainability and aims to make creating music part of young people's lives; to give them life enhancing skills through learning to sing and play instruments; to generate opportunities for children and young people to experience making music with others whilst contributing to the development of their personal and social identity.
