We use music and creative arts to improve the lives of those living with dementia
We are a registered charity dedicated to improving the lives of those living with dementia and other cognitive and physical barriers, through the provision of music and creative arts.
Why the community needs usAppreciation of music is the last part of the brain to remain active in a person living with advanced dementia. Our music and personalised playlist projects allow beneficiaries (living at home or within residential care settings) to experience the release of fond memories of past events, family life, past travel and other happy times in their lives which helps to reduce stress, anxiety, agitation, depression and confusion.
Our impact on the communityThere are approximately 12000 people living with dementia in Northamptonshire alone. Due to lack of funds, many individuals and groups do not benefit from the proven personal and health benefits that access to music and creative arts can bring. We aim to reach as many of these individuals and groups as we can. The more funding we can raise the more people we can help.
