PRS Members’ Fund, the charity that provides funding to PRS songwriters and composers during difficult times, and BAPAM, the UK experts in performing arts medicine, have partnered to launch a first of its kind digital tool to support the health and wellbeing of music creators.

InTune is a free to use digital platform that provides personalised insights into physical and mental wellbeing, with a special emphasis on the specific health challenges that songwriters, composers and musicians can face in their career.

InTune also offers resources to help manage finances, overcome writer’s block, and more—all designed to build resilience and support peak performance.

All resources provided by InTune have the clinical backing of BAPAM

Officially launched at the PRS AGM and London Members’ Day (Tuesday 3 June 2025), InTune uses an intuitive digital interface to give personalised health assessments with tailored resources and signposting to specialist support. All resources provided by InTune have the clinical backing of BAPAM.

The health of musicians and composers recently hit global headlines, with Chappell Roan calling for better support for musicians and composers’ health from record companies at the Grammys. Sam Fender also highlighted his own difficulties with his mental and physical health and how that has impacted him as a performer.

Claire Cordeaux, CEO, BAPAM said: “Research shows that 75% of musicians and composers will have an injury or illness that impacts their career. Many of these problems are preventable.

“With most musicians and composers working in freelance positions, it is vital that they are supported with specialist, clinically sound health and wellbeing support. To address this need, InTune provides immediate information, tailored to users’ individual responses. We are delighted that the PRS Members’ Fund recognised the importance of this tool to reach out to the musician and composer community.”
