Every 1st and 4th Thursday afternoon.
None of the varied diagnoses of dementia take away our musical memory so we can use music and singing as a powerful tool to initiate conversation and reminiscence, sing for fun and have a laugh.
We deliver music and singing based groups for people in the community affected by dementia, other memory issues as well as loneliness and isolation.
Suggested donation £3-5 refreshments included and occasional raffle!
There is also a memory cafe delivered by 'Broughton Astley Volunteer group' (BAVG) on the 3rd Thursday.
