About Us

HEY EVERYONE!

Thank you for stopping by.  My name is Rachel and I welcome you to Amplified Voices. 

I have spent much of my life on stages in many different settings - from churches and theatre productions to nightclubs and festivals. Across all of these spaces, I’ve seen the same truth play out again and again: music is healing. It brings people together, lifts spirits, and builds confidence, often reaching places that words alone cannot.

Amplified Voices exists because of that understanding. We create safe, inclusive spaces where people can express themselves through music, movement, and conversation, without pressure or expectation. Our work is not about performance or perfection; it is about wellbeing, belonging, and giving people permission to use their voice.

Amplified Voices works across the whole life span. We support children and young people, women, neuroinclusive communities, and older adults. Our programmes welcome people of faith and no faith and are shaped by the needs of the communities we serve at that time. Whether someone is seeking confidence, connection, healing, or simply a place to belong, they are welcome here.

At the heart of Amplified Voices is the belief that creativity is essential to human wellbeing. Through music, gentle movement, and meaningful conversation, we help people reconnect with their voice, their identity, and each other.

If you’d like to learn more about our work or get involved, we’d love to hear from you.

Thank you for being here.
