Supporters of sinfonia ViVA

John Lewis

John Lewis Nottingham has been in partnership with ViVA since 2003 over a number of projects. The recent dazzling success of the 'Beanbag Proms' presents us with exciting developments and opportunities in working together with ViVA and our local community.

Following the success of this relationship ViVA is soon to work with our branch in Solihull, thus pushing the boundaries beyond the local community.

We are looking forward to broadening our partnership with ViVA through the 'Fever' project, to extend the reach to less fortunate and smaller groups, who would perhaps not otherwise benefit from this type of musical experience.

John Lewis will relish the opportunity to forge strong links with the Leicestershire community, particularly due to the opening of its forthcoming store in Autumn 2008.

As a brand we take every opportunity to develop relationships with organisations other than retail, 'to give something back'. The growth of the John Lewis/ViVA partnership is evidence that our two organisations work well together and the activity is relevant, fun and more importantly benefiting to everyone involved.
