Objectives

We strive to provide stimulation and enjoyment to everyone involved with the care sector; we provide music based events to the elderly, families and carers on a regular weekly basis.

Activities

We run simple but hopefully fun and enjoyable events inside and outside of Care Homes. Our Events are music based and are supported by families who have residents in care homes. Families provide and serve refreshments, giving them a real purpose to their visits. We support families and people living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia and provide regular weekly live entertainment every weekend. We also put on simple outside events too for people who are still able to bring their residents out. We support the disabled, the isolated and the lonely and provide a minibus service for people who cannot travel on public transport with ease. This is a not for profit organisation which is run by volunteers.
