Our services and products can support you with this national agenda, to help offer every child the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of making music. In line with the National Plan's emphasis on collaboration and partnerships, we are committed to working closely with Music Hubs to achieve these shared objectives.
We are pleased to confirm we are an approved supplier for the Capital Grant for Musical Instruments. Get in touch now to see how we can help.

Flexible Storage Options
Take advantage of our offer to alleviate storage worries by storing your orders free of charge in our secure, centrally-located UK warehouse. This allows you the flexibility to dispatch products either in one consolidated shipment or in separate deliveries over time, at no additional cost.
Customised Free Delivery
We offer free delivery to all of our Education customers, no matter the order size. Recognising the unique demands of each order, we provide flexible shipping solutions that include delivery to various locations, on specific days and, where possible, at precise times to accommodate your needs. We can also remove and recycle excess packaging after delivery.
Free Sample Service
We understand the importance of finding the right musical instruments for your music programme. To ensure that you select the best options for your students, we offer a Free Sample Service for Music Hubs. This service allows you to try out instruments before making any commitment to purchase. We will cover all associated costs, providing a risk-free opportunity to test and evaluate our products.
Sustainable Packaging and Waste Reduction
As part of our commitment to both ease the process of purchasing instruments and contributing to environmental sustainability, we offer a service to minimise or completely remove product packaging and waste either before shipping or upon delivery. This initiative underscores our dedication to streamlining your purchasing experience while actively reducing our ecological footprint.
Extended Warranty
Having peace of mind when purchasing is important and that’s why we offer a 5 year warranty on our leading brands; Montreux, Forenza, 3rd Avenue, A-Star & Axus, giving you the confidence that these products are the right choice for your students.
Bespoke Branding
When making bulk purchases you may wish to consider utilising our free branding options to add your Music Hub logo to the instrument cases. This service has been utilised by many organisations and not only helps with identification, but in also promoting your Music Hub and creating a sense of unity with students.
Asset Tagging
We offer the service of asset tagging/serialising your products directly from our warehouse. This can be achieved through various methods, including the use of stickers or tags, depending on your preference.
Focus on Sustainability
At Normans Education, we are all aligned in our commitment to sustainability, understanding the vital role that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like ours play in supporting a healthier planet. We have committed through the SME Climate Hub to halve emissions by 2030 and to cut them to zero by 2050.
ReTune Instrument Recyling Scheme
This new initiative invites music hubs to recycle their old, unused
musical instruments. Normans will arrange a free-of-charge collection of
these instruments, assess their condition and either repair, donate, auction or responsibly dispose of them. Any surplus generated from the resale of instruments or parts will be donated to Earthly.org.
Our extensive supplier base has access to most industry leading and specialist brands. If there's anything you're interested in but can't find on our website, please get in touch and ask us, more than likely we'll be able to help.
