To support Play the Organ Year, the resource pack below has been producing, including organiser information, repertoire suggestions, Play the Organ session plans, templates, and advice on everything from working with beginners to publicising events.

You can download these resources individually, or click 'Play the Organ Year Resource Pack' at the bottom of the page to download the full set in a zipped folder. And don't forget to use the hashtag #PlayTheOrgan to let everyone know about your event, and how it went!      

Organiser Feedback

Once you have finished your Play the Organ Year event(s) and activity, please come back to let us know how you go on. Your feedback and insight will provide us with vital information on how the campaign went, the organiser experience and, critically, how many new people we were able to introduce to the organ over the course of the year. The following survey link will be open in early January, so please do take a few minutes to complete it:
