Through our instrument hire scheme, you can rent an instrument for one term or until you leave school. We have a wide range of high quality instruments, from flutes to double basses. We even have smaller sized instruments to suit smaller musicians.
We offer extremely favourable rates and a 50% discount for people in receipt of certain benefits. This scheme is aimed at young musicians (aged up to 21, who live or study in Essex).
Once you have chosen your instrument, please read the conditions of hire and download an application form.
Please note that this service gets busy at the beginning of term and extra time should be allowed for delivery. We do not guarantee availability of instruments or delivery dates.
