Noise Solution uses music and technology to engage with young people. We give them the experience and skills that they need to achieve successful outcomes that they value. At the same time we are able to make a significant impact in building their confidence and empowering them to continue that success under their own steam. Our primary focus is on working with those who are deemed difficult to engage with. For example those young people who have educational challenges, are in care, non mainstream education, NEET or involved with the criminal justice system.

Great achievement, Lee! 📚🎉 #CommunityMusic #Publication #MusicIndustry
This interactive visualisation of our well-being outcomes from Flores @wildvariables (twitter) is so elegant in getting across it's point - have a play using the link below https://lnkd.in/eA4XHnA2 Viz for Social Good
More amazing data visualisations from our partnership work with Viz for Social Good and their volunteers. A beautiful example of how data can come to life and tell a story, a realistic one of the impact an organisation can have. Here are the increases (and decreases) in well-being for the last 400 young people we've worked with. (Credit: Sarah More for this piece of work) https://lnkd.in/eYHJr8Cm
Our CEO Simon's recent published contribution to this book has been made available by the publishers as a single chapter. Check it out if you or your organisation are struggling with demonstrating your outcomes.
Don't know how to capture your organisations outcomes? The book I contributed to recently has now had it's chapters made independently available. My chapter details how Noise Solution, as a small arts organisations, has utilised digital tools to solve historic issues in capturing outcomes - in ways that don't 'get in the way' and in fact, actually improve outcomes! There are some real insights in the book from a wealth of fantastic contributors, take a look. Obviously if you do actually want to read it then just email me and I'll send you a copy rather than the paywall version here
We love data - how about if people could engage with and play with your organisations impact data - transparent impact - showing you trust what you put out into the owrld as your impact - that's what we're working towards - check out this post
Imagine a world were people could play with and investigate your organisational impact data, transparently in real time. That's what we're working towards. We love a bit of data at Noise Solution - we've turned our well-being impact data over to Viz's volunteers to play with and to find interesting ways to visualise our impact in ways that the viewer can engage with - Check out this example that's just arrived in my inbox, one of about 15 different interpretations - have a play here https://lnkd.in/ep8yfvYJ Or this example where the volunteer has used Sonification (sound) to interpret our well-being impact - fascinating https://lnkd.in/eEBH4jeG @vizforsocialgood
Free pro bono impact help available for organisations doing work around Mental Health
On our way to the NatWest SE100 Awards, again! We probably wouldn't be if Costello Medical hadn't done such an amazing piece of work on our SROI. They've just put a call out to do more pro bono work with non-profits delivering mental health projects - you can read about it here https://lnkd.in/eC5nuYiu
Delighted to be recognised as a top 100 UK Social Enterprise in the NatWest #SE100 index.

Very much looking forward to todays conference talking about #collaboratetoinnovate at the Institute for manufacturing in partnership with the foundation for young people’s mental health
Did we mention that in partnership with VRP Consulting we only went and beat Microsoft in the national Digital Revolution Awards? In the innovating in A.I category! Why? because we're disrupting how third sector organisations authentically capture and demonstrate outcomes - in ways that actually improve those outcomes!
