O360 is Create Music’s inclusive, creative music group for children and young people with SEND, their parents/carers and siblings in the Brighton & Hove area.
Anyone interested in making music is invited to join us. No prior experience is needed, but more experienced musicians are also welcome. Members have the opportunity to try a number instruments and to choose what they would like to play, supported by our Artistic Director team of multi-instrument specialists.
Fundamentally o360 is about the joy of making music together in a large group, using high-quality instruments and the latest technology, in our state-of-the-art rehearsal space at Sound Rooms. We approach every young musician as an individual, meeting them where they are musically and working together to realise their musical dreams and aspirations in a fun, family-friendly and inclusive environment.
‘My son likes being trusted to get the music right and to be expected to play more difficult pieces... Most of all it's about what he can do and not what he can't. He is on a level playing field with his peers. It's so wonderful to see young people leaving their disabilities at the door and just being o360.’Lynne, o360 parent
‘It has been such a weird time, and being in hospital with my son for so long means I feel completely out of touch with real life even more. The o360 sessions and music videos are really important to us and help so much to remind both my boys of familiar faces & positive times’Nicky, o360 parent
