Ground Zero is a new project birthed from the Christian Music Band LED. For 10 years the band worked in schools in the South West reaching thousands of young people with the message of Jesus through an exciting presentation of music, lessons, workshops and concerts.
Ground Zero; in its name means that we are breaking down the barriers – going to where the young people are – right in the schools. We are so excited to be back in the schools doing what we do best and that is bringing the school to life with music, drama, dance, energy and fun. Through lessons, workshops, assemblies and concerts, our team aim to deliver top notch lessons following the National Curriculum and local schemes of work in PSHE, SMCS, Religious Education, Music and Dance. We want to bring the Christian message of Hope to the schools, teaching the young people the basics around who we are, why we are here, respect and so much more.
Ground Zero can offer:
Assemblies
Workshops
Lessons
Pulse Bus
Sound of Hope

Ground Zero aims at engaging all students in all activities no matter what experience they bring they will leave feeling confident in the knowledge that they are loved, here for a reason and purpose and united by the message of Hope of Jesus. Each session will cover the issues that our young people face such as bullying, identity, respect, self-worth, friendships and relationships etc. Ground Zero’s unique approach to delivering tough topics means that every child matters and will be followed on through the work of the Pulse Bus and The Loft Events.
Ground Zero will link and work closely with local churches to see that follow up to the school visit is in place to continue the work with the young people.
What People Are Saying
“I have known about the work of Oriel Ministries for the last 10 years and the amazing work they do in schools using music as a platform to talk about real life issues that young people are struggling with today. I had the privilege of joining Nikki and her team in a local school and I was so impressed by the presentation to the children of this life changing message and how it impacted them in such a positive way. From my 10 years experience in Policing there is a huge concern amongst young people, the work of Oriel address' this concern at the core level.It is so important that young people have good role models and I can’t endorse enough the work of Oriel Ministries and the work of GROUND ZERO led by Nikki Uglow.”

“Significant contribution to: 1) Community cohesion 2) RE/Morality & Ethics 3) SMSC (Spiritual, Moral, social, Cultural) and a very positive contribution to our recent Ofsted. Very enjoyable. Music is a great medium through which to convey a message. Appreciate energy, passion, openness and honesty. A very dedicated, professional team who clearly understand young people but also how to engage positively with differing perspective on the importance of religion.”
