In 2019, the MU and shesaid.so combined forces to support women in the industry by matching fellow musicians together, to help one another grow and succeed in their careers. This project sought to equip women with the tools and confidence to address any challenges they may face in fulfilling their career goals in the music industry. A key part of this is ensuring that women have the opportunity to meet, learn and be motivated by positive female role models from within the same industry.
A total of 20 woman-identifying members of the Musicians’ Union were invited to become either mentors or mentees and take part in our guided mentoring scheme taking place between May-November 2019.
