Allianz Musical Insurance partners with Royal Liverpool Philharmonic to aid mental health

Allianz Musical Insurance has announced a new partnership with Liverpool Philharmonic. Central to Liverpool’s cultural offering, Liverpool Philharmonic is the largest music organisation and one of the largest cultural organisations in the city, employing over 240 people.

With the importance of mental health and wellbeing – particularly with adults - being at an all-time high, the support of Liverpool Philharmonics ‘Music Mondays’ was a key factor in the partnership. More than 18,000 people have benefited from Liverpool Philharmonic’s Music and Health Programme over the last 15 years which uses music to improve the health of people across the Liverpool City Region.

‘Music Mondays’ are free informal interactive music sessions led by a musician from Liverpool Philharmonic as part of their Social Prescribing programme. The sessions are open to adults in the Liverpool City Region and aim to combat low mood and isolation through learning about music and connecting with others in a relaxed, fun and safe environment.

Brian Hillstead, partnerships manager at Allianz Musical Insurance commented: “The partnership became an obvious choice when we saw the incredible work that Liverpool Philharmonic do in support of their community, and the reach the orchestra has over any other music organisation outside of London. Music and positive mental health go hand in hand and the diverse programme on offer highlights the benefits for all.”

Liverpool Philharmonic’s diverse programme of events; ranging from classical, contemporary, rock, pop, folk, roots and jazz music, to comedy, film and spoken word, give people the opportunity to see and hear world-class artists perform. Over 260,000 people attend Liverpool Philharmonic concerts each year and over 500,000 people globally listen on Spotify each month. Liverpool Philharmonic’s extensive learning programme is recognised as a national leader in its field in its quality, reach and impact on local communities.
