Nomad Beat is a registered charity based in Peebles in the Scottish Borders with a passionate team of music educators delivering music lessons and outreach group sessions to people of all ages, abilities and needs.
We run lessons daily in our studios in Peebles and our outreach groups take place weekly in the community. We also have a varied programme of events coming to the website soon.
Our outreach sessions help people of all ages and abilities unlock the therapeutic benefits of music through the guidance and support of our expert tutors.
We work with people with lived experience of dementia, people experiencing depression and low mood as well as people with additional needs.
To promote music and musicianship in the local community
To create opportunities for all through accessible, affordable musical education
To create a vibrant learning environment for students of all ages, abilities and needs
We operate from our studios in Peebles with a dedicated team of tutors, staff, and volunteers who have kept the Nomad Beat dream alive since its creation by founder Alison Cameron in 2010.
Our community hub for learning, practicing, and performing music is a second home to our many students and hard-working tutors. When our tutors aren’t busy giving lessons, they can be found performing as well as delivering our music outreach sessions to the communities across the Scottish Borders.
