Help Us Transform Lives at
Jo's Studio
We are launching a £14,000 fundraising campaign to build a professional recording and rehearsal studio called
Jo’s Studio.
This dedicated space will provide a safe, judgment-free sanctuary where individuals on the margins of our community—including those overcoming trauma, exclusion, or time in prison—can come together to heal, connect, and collaborate through the power of music.
By donating today, you become a foundational part of a lasting community legacy. To honour your vital support, we would love to permanently feature your name on our donor plaque during the grand reopening of Jo's.
For the past two years, Jo’s has been a vibrant hub for community music sessions.
While our current space has laid a powerful foundation, we have a much bolder vision for what Jo's can achieve.
With your help,
we can scale our reach.
Empower 150 Prison Leavers
Deliver enhanced annual programmes that provide a vital bridge back into society.
Protect At-Risk Youth
Deepen and expand our reach to support young people facing school exclusion or criminal justice involvement.
Launch 'Second Verse'
Pioneer a transformative new programme offering a constructive, creative alternative to prison for those serving community sentences.
This space will act as a shared creative engine for Bristol, serving far beyond a single-use venue. It will directly amplify the impact of local grassroots artists and partner charities using music to heal and connect. It is a shared creative asset for our entire city.
We have already raised £38k thanks to the immense generosity of individual donors and forward-thinking organisations. Now, we just need a final £14k to bring this vision to life.
