Friends of the
Central London Orchestra
Central London Orchestra is powered by its members, supporters, and volunteers. We believe in making great music together, and in building a welcoming, inclusive community in the heart of London.
Support from generous individuals is increasingly important for us to provide high-quality orchestral experiences in London. We would love for you to join our community of donors – where each and every contribution supports our continued role in London’s cultural life.

Why Support CLO?
Deliver Ambitious Projects
Your generosity allows us to take on larger works, hire percussionists and guest artists, and stage concerts in exciting venues that push our artistic boundaries.
Spotlight Rising Stars
With your help, we can invite star soloists from London’s Royal Academy
of Music – giving young talent a platform and enriching our concerts for everyone.
Build Community
We are a member-led orchestra, supported by volunteers and fee-paying members. Your donation helps us keep our doors open to all, fostering friendships and musical growth.
Stay Connected
Season Preview
At the start of each year, enjoy a video preview of the musical worlds we’re about to explore.
End-of-Year Review
Celebrate our achievements and see what’s coming next, including spotlights on former artists and members of the orchestra. We’ll share stories of what your support has achieved: new projects, soloist updates, and behind-the-scenes glimpses of life at CLO.
Every Gift Matters
​
Donate upwards of £30 annually to underwrite a guest musician, to larger gifts supporting entire concerts - choose the level that works for you. Your gift can help underwrite a soloist, a percussion section, an exciting venue, or a major work.
Every Gift Counts: All donations made by a UK taxpayer are eligible for Gift Aid which means we
receive an additional 25%
Join Our Core Supporters
We’re building a group of dedicated supporters – parents, members, friends, alumni, and loyal concertgoers – who believe in musical excellence and community. If you’d consider a gift of £30 or more, you’ll be joining a family that makes music possible for everyone.
