Take it away
1 Oct 2009
To date, Take it away has helped over 23,000 people to buy over 15 million pounds worth of instruments, and get playing. With 265 stores across England currently offering Take it away, it has never been easier to buy the instrument of your dreams. From Guildford to Gateshead, you’ll find woodwind specialists, drum experts, guitar fanatics and everything in between, all offering Take it away.
So whether you’re after a banjo, a piano, or a bass guitar, you can use the scheme to help you on your way. All you need to do is find the instrument you want to buy in one of our registered stores, and the staff will help you with the rest. After you’ve paid 10% of the instrument cost, you can take it away and repay the rest over nine months, completely interest free.
For more information, why not watch the new film we’ve had made www.artscouncil.org.uk/takeitaway or get in touch at takeitaway@artscouncil.org.uk
