MEMBER COMMENTS

Wouldn’t give up my membership for anything ... I’d live on beans fi rst! Leila Begg, ISM member since 1999

You guys have been amazing thank you and you are about to run some social media and blog info about my new album so I feel very well supported and represented by my ISM despite the challenging circumstances that we have all endured. Donna-Marie Povey, ISM member since 2017

Thanks so much for this inspirational session by Emma Alter. Nicola Billington MISM, ISM member since 2018

I just wanted to say thank you because your website is so helpful with regards to advice on recommending one-to-one music tuition and risk assessments etc. I have really appreciated the advice and guidance. Thank you so much. Naomi Brocklehurst, ISM member since 2018 Just to say that the previous webinar on mental health was fantastic and very helpful. It really impacted on the effects of the lockdown on musicians. Ms Jepson ticked many of the boxes that I had experienced, especially the loss of identity. ISM member

I must say over all the years that I’ve been in the ISM I have never been more impressed by the service you have offered in recent months. I have received a great deal of advice and help. ISM member

‘Thank you so much for all the helpful, useful and relevant emails that you are sending to keep us up-to-date with COVID-19 advice and regulations. Your messages are a breath of fresh air compared with some I receive from other organisations or bodies, when I have to trawl through pages of ‘too many words’ to fi nd what I need to know. Your summaries of salient points and the links directly to the relevant parts of government documents are most welcome, and have enabled me to be properly informed without losing the will to live!

I have friends, relatives and acquaintances who have also benefi ted from the clarity of your messages, especially in aspects of teaching and religious worship. Each of them has commented on the quality of the information and the manner in which it is presented. Most of them would not qualify for membership otherwise they’d join!

I have always known that my membership has been worthwhile. This year has surpassed all others with this additional usefulness, and there’s no doubt that I’ll certainly be renewing my membership.’ ISM member since 2003
