Macclesfield Music Centre (MMC) is an independent, registered charity, offering everyone in Macclesfield and the surrounding community the opportunity to enjoy making music.
Music is performed by groups & ensembles at all levels, providing progressive training and experience in wind band, jazz band & orchestral playing, and our Coffee Shop is an ideal meeting place to make new friends. Our members range from 3 to 76+ years, so it really is a genuine community.

Please consider helping us with a donation - you can give via card via Paypal or direct from your bank:
Donate via Paypal Giving Fund - with Gift Aid
This method allows you to make a gift-aid declaration (click the link in your email receipt after you have donated), and doesn't cost MMC anything to receive, but does require you to have or create a Paypal account.
Donate by Paypal - regular donation (no gift aid)
This method doesn't require a Paypal account (just a credit/debit card) but does not allow gift aid, and does incur a small fee to Paypal (which you can choose to pay on our behalf if you wish). It will also allow a regular donation to be set-up if desired. If you wish to make a regular donation with Gift Aid, please see the Bank Transfer section below.
Bank Transfer
You can send a donation via bank transfer as a one off or as a regular standing order - if you are able to complete a gift aid form (and haven't already done so) then please do; it adds 25p to every £1 you donate:
