Future Faces leader brings business and musical expertise to Tamworth event

Future Faces Chamber of Commerce vice-president Will Crawford is adding his business and musical expertise to a special event in Tamworth next month.

Will, founder and CEO of Birmingham-based wellbeing organisation quietnote, has been selected to deliver a talk at TEDxTamworth on 16 April.

The TEDx event will explore the powerful theme of belonging, with Will’s talk focusing on the idea of internal belonging - what it means to feel at home within your own mind and body.

 His session will combine scientific insight with a live classical guitar performance, demonstrating quietnote’s distinctive ‘mindfulness through music’ approach.

quietnote attracted significant media attention last year following the launch of their world-first clinical study, delivered in partnership with the University of Birmingham, exploring the measurable impact of their approach on stress, resilience, performance and overall wellbeing.

 With its evidence-based approach to preventative healthcare, quietnote now works directly with communities and corporate organisations to build healthier minds and high-performance cultures.

Through its programmes, participants learn practical skills to develop a self-sustaining mindfulness practice to improve resilience, focus, sleep quality and emotional regulation.

The inclusion of music makes the process more accessible while providing additional benefits in emotional intelligence and regulation.

In his upcoming TEDx talk, Will explores how combining the science of mindfulness with the art of music creates one of the most accessible wellbeing practices available.

At a time when many people feel fragmented or disconnected, he offers the perspective that belonging is not something people chase - it is something they learn to feel.

Will (pictured) said: “If the UK’s national productivity decline alongside rising mental health statistic teach us anything, it’s that people are becoming increasingly disconnected from their body and mind.

“We no longer feel at home or comfortable in ourselves, we have lost our sense of intrabody belonging. By approaching music through the science of mindfulness, we can cultivate belonging not just in our communities and relationships, but within ourselves.”
