Music Minds Matter partnered with Skiddle in March 2025 to strengthen mental health support across the live music sector. Since launching the partnership, we’ve worked together on panel discussions, industry roundtables, and dedicated ​“Check Your Level” wellbeing sessions for Skiddle employees, helping to build awareness and embed positive mental health practices across the organisation. Skiddle is also supporting wider industry change by engaging promoters, venues, and other partners in conversations about mental health. This collaboration expands our ability to reach even more people working in live music and ensures that anyone — on stage, behind the scenes, or on the road — can access the support they need to thrive. 

Our exciting collaboration with Spotify brings together our expertise with Spotify’s global reach, alongside other leading charities, to ensure that artists, songwriters, and their teams have access to vital mental health support whenever they need it. This partnership marks a significant step forward in our shared mission to foster a healthier, more supportive music industry.

In May 2025, Music Minds Matter joined Spotify’s global Heart & Soul initiative, a partnership focused on strengthening mental health support across the music industry through therapy grants, wellbeing resources, and interactive sessions for artists and their teams. To mark World Mental Health Day, we co-hosted a ​“Mental Health & Songwriting” event at London’s Royal Albert Hall, welcoming 150 songwriters to explore practical tools and strategies for sustaining positive wellbeing. Speakers included Fraser T. Smith, Katie Melua, Sumit Bothra, RuthAnne, Kamille, and Grace Meadows FRSA. We look forward to continuing this work and delivering even more together in 2026.
