Jennifer Maslin: New Ambassador for Harmony of Hope — A Charity Everyone Should Know

Tuesday 13th May 2025

We’re proud to see our alumna Jennifer Maslin spreading the word about an amazing charity she’s recently become an ambassador for.

Jennifer shared "Harmony of Hope is a small, but wonderful charity, which aims to bring healing and hope to refugees, displaced, and disadvantaged people predominantly in the Middle East."

"The charity offers music provision, practical resources and teacher training for the most marginalised in society. This goes far beyond a simple music lesson. Weekly sessions offer a warm, safe place to meet and share experiences, an inclusive, creative environment, community, and perhaps most importantly – hope."

In her latest blog, Healing through music: Harmony of Hope, Jennifer shares words from the charity’s founder, who sheds light on the incredible work being done by Harmony of Hope. A read well worth your time.

Thank you for sharing, Jennifer!
