The Byron Shire Early Intervention Service is receiving resources to run an evidence-based music therapy program to assist children with sensory dysfunction through the Splendour in the Grass 2009 Community Grants Program. Splendour also put the Byron Shire Early Intervention Service in touch with Belinda Tucquet from Hummingbird Music
Therapy, who is now donating her time to support the service. Each year Splendour organisers select community groups as beneficiaries of funds raised through a $2 contribution from every event ticket sold. This year $35,000 is being distributed between five not-for-profit groups.
