North East Forum on Ageing

Our local North East Care Home Choir are looking to secure funding in order to bring music to people living with dementia.

Please visit our Care Home Choir homepage in order to help us make a difference: https://www.thepeoplesprojects.org.uk/projects/view/care-home-choir

The project will provide online and face to face Care Home Choir sessions to improve wellbeing. The aim is to give residents the opportunity to sing and talk together, write new music, and to work with both local school children and the Royal Northern Sinfonia to record and perform together.

It will help to;

  • Reduce loneliness through creative and expressive activities`
  • Improve intergenerational relationships in the community
  • Build confidence and ambition of residents

The closing date is the 26th May 2023 and you can vote using individual email addresses but please remember to check your inbox and validate your vote to make each one count.

Many thanks,
