People in the Cardigan area are being asked to hand in unwanted musical instruments to the Oxfam shop in High Street as part of a national scheme spearheaded by internationally-renowned classical pianist James Rhodes.
The instrument amnesty is aimed at helping UK schoolchildren eager to learn to play musical instruments but don’t have the resources to do so.
Unique and ground/breaking concert pianist James Rhodes said “Music must continue to be a basic human right for every child to learn an instrument and this amnesty gives people the chance to make a difference.”
Cardigan Oxfam shop manager Cherry Stephenson said “We are thrilled to be helping James with his instrument amnesty. I’d ask anyone in the area with unwanted instruments to drop them off at the shop. Your instrument could help inspire a new generation of musicians.”
The amnesty runs until October 17.
