New website launching soon

Exciting news!  🌟  Youth Music is launching its new website soon! No more switching between sites - everything will be in one place.

We’ve put your needs at the heart of this redesign, making it easier to find everything you need—and it’s looking cooler than ever!

Please note that your sign-up details will no longer work, but you’ll still be able to submit opportunities and events via a submission form. We recommend copying and pasting any blog posts you’d like to keep, as not all content will be carried across.

More information will be shared shortly. In the meantime, some key Q&As can be found here. Please email comms@youthmusic.org.uk if you have any further questions!

 

When will the new website be launched?

The new website will be launched at the end of this month. Sign up to our newsletter for more updates. 

 

Will the new website be accessible?

Our new website will meet WCAG AAA standards, the highest level of accessibility.

 

Can I still access the old website?

Both the previous website (Youth Music/Youth Music Network) will be taken offline, but all of the previous main pages and information will be moved across to the new website. User-posted blogs, events and jobs won't be kept. We recommend copying and pasting any blog posts you’d like to keep.

 

I have a question about the new website - where can I send it?

Will my login details still work on the new site?

No.

 

Will I have to create a new account?

No - but you’ll still be able to submit opportunities and events via a submission form. 

 

Will there be any downtime while the new website is launched?

We are hoping for a smooth transition and launch to the new website! 

 

What will happen to my blog posts on the Youth Music Network?

Please copy and paste any blog posts you want to keep, as these are not being carried across. If you need us to find and send anything for you, please email comms@youthmusic.org.uk

 

I often share resources from the Youth Music Network - will they still be available?

Yes, the most commonly used resources will still be available and if you have the old links, you’ll be redirected. 

 

How will I apply for funding if the website has changed/has the Grants portal changed? Where do I go? 

Our grants portal has stayed the same, and is different from our previous website. To apply for one of ours grants, go to: https://grants.youthmusic.org.uk/
