**Promenaders’ Musical Charities has reported an initial total of £2,350 raised 
during the first week of the 2020 BBC Proms online collection, with £1,620 pledged
to Help Musicians UK and £730 to CLIC Sargent.**

The 2020 Proms season is running without a live audience for the first time, meaning
the charity is unable to collect donations in person at concerts. Instead, donations
are being collected through JustGiving pages.

Help Musicians UK is being supported for its COVID-19 hardship fund, helping freelance
musicians whose earnings have been severely affected by the pandemic. CLIC Sargent
receives funding for its music therapy work with children and young people with 
cancer.
