SCLAN Music Foundation, a registered charity in the United Kingdom, has championed the promotion of Ghanaian music and culture since its inception in late 2021.
The foundation has already invited celebrated Gospel Music artist Joe Mettle and MOG to speak at workshops held in June of this year.
Top Ghanaian music producers like Joe Wilson and celebrated Ghanaian bass guitarist and marketer Opoku Sanaa have also been instrumental, teaching Ghanaian music methods and advocating for Ghanaian music and culture in North West England.
Founded by talented Ghanaian sports broadcast journalist and current BBC employee, George Addo, the SCLAN Music Foundation facilitates community music programs for schools to ensure all children can engage with music through various resources.
The foundation also promotes inclusion and cultural appreciation by exposing students to various musical traditions.
In addition to intensive community engagement in Manchester, the foundation organized a free, 6-hour music workshop and band experience attended by nearly 250 youth.
Top professionals including Opoku Sanaa, Joe Mettle, MOG, Joe Wilson, and Ezekiel Omosebi shared their experiences and taught music techniques.
The foundation also organized a worship concert in August with close to 350 participants. Top acts like Ayo and Baaba Nelson performed alongside the foundation's choir.
In late November, the foundation will organize its final program of the year, "Sound of Christmas," bringing together approximately 500 people at the Elmwood Church for an unforgettable worship experience.
Central to the foundation's mission is ensuring the promotion of Ghanaian music and culture as it seeks to foster unity among the diverse backgrounds in Manchester.
