About The Role
If you are a confident singer and would like to use this skill to make a difference to people living with dementia, then we’d love to hear from you
Singing for the Brain is a structured group session, designed around the principles of music therapy and singing for people with dementia, who may attend alone or with a carer. These uplifting sessions offer the people attending an enjoyable activity, as well as the chance to socialise with other people affected by dementia.
As a Singing for the Brain Facilitator Volunteer, you’ll utilise your musical knowledge and singing skills to support the facilitation and delivery of a programme of songs, musical activities, and physical movements, ensuring sessions are flexible and responsive to the needs and interests of the people attending. You will be instrumental in creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere where people feel supported and safe to engage with the activities, either online or in person.
We are looking to introduce a new Singing for the Brain group in Liverpool.
Days and times are to be confirmed so there is scope to work together around current commitments.
You will be supported by our Dementia Advisers and group volunteers to make the sessions as successful as possible.
We ask for a commitment of approximately 6 hours per month.
