What is it about Monkey Music that translates so well into a thriving business for so many people?  We believe the answer is deeply ingrained in our tried and tested business model.  This, combined with a very personal and long term relationship with our young families and the expertise of our Head Office Support Team, offers our franchisees the right mix of ingredients with which to run their own successful business.

Monkey Music offers you:
  • Peace of mind to know that your business can work
  • Confidence that you are operating ethically - Monkey Music has been a FULL member of the British Franchise Assocation (BFA) since 2004, therefore guaranteeing the franchisor operates ethically.  Angie Coates, CEO & Founder, is a member of the BFA Board and the Monkey Music Directors have been keynote speakers at numerous BFA events
  • It is a model that has been tried and tested, is workable and can make profits

Monkey Music Celebrated its 30th Birthday and raised over £32,000 for charity partner Nordoff and Robbins 

Monkey Music celebrated 30 years in 2023. Our very first classes opened in London in 1993 and were taught by our founder and CEO, Angie Coates. Today, Monkey Music is widely recognised as the leading light in pre-school music education across the UK and Monkey Music teachers have delivered an astonishing 3 million hours of classes!

To celebrate the birthday year, we thanked our customers for their support by hosting Monkey's 30th Birthday Parties throughout the year and raised over £32,000 for our charity partner, Nordoff and Robbins.

As the UK’s largest music therapy charity, Nordoff and Robbins use music to enrich the lives of people with life-limiting illness, disabilities or feelings of isolation. Their mission is to provide music therapy to anyone whose quality of life could be improved by it.

"Music therapy is a recognised health and therapeutic intervention. Our therapists are highly skilled musicians and are trained to an exceptional standard. They work with children and adults of all ages from our locations across the UK including Scotland, Wales, Manchester, Newcastle and London. We also work in partnership organisations including schools, care homes, hospices, hospitals, mental health services and brain injury units." (from Nordoff and Robbins website).
