Parkinson's Singing Cafe Newbury

Back to results

Teaching music, changing lives is at the heart of what we do at Berkshire Music Trust.  We’ve expanded our reach to include working with older people in the community and people who have Parkinson’s or Dementia in our Singing Cafes. They are across Berkshire in local community venues and care homes.  Our participants love a sing along to familiar songs, have fun and catch up with other locals.

We have been supported by various local funders including the Arts Council Cultural Recovery Fund and are working in partnership with Age UK Berkshire as well as local branches of Parkinson’s UK.

Each Singing Café session includes singing and musical activity followed by time to have tea/coffee with a biscuit and a chat. We encourage people to meet new friends and to socialise and reengage with other like-minded people in the community.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you into our community!
