Singing for the Brain brings people affected by dementia together to sing a wide variety of songs that they know and love in a fun, friendly and relaxed environment. Anyone is welcome to join and express themselves, feel positive and make new friends, whether they are living with dementia, memory loss or just love singing! As well as Carl leading the singing, skilled and experienced staff will be on hand to offer support and guidance. Plus, refreshments are provided.
This short video was kindly made by Simon Waldman to showcase Singing for the Brain sessions at Barnes Green Centre and to celebrate the 60th birthda year of FiSH Neighbourhood Care.
