Care Home Performances

I am an experienced care home singer, and have performed in care homes, dementia wards, memory cafes and supportive settings across the East Midlands.

I now offer performances to care homes within 20 miles of Grantham (September to May only).

Songs can reach and move residents, can bring back memories and create emotions. Singing and moving to songs are physical activities with benefits to speech, breathing and co-ordination. The cognitive benefits of music and of singing in particular are well documented.
