Activities

What do we do? 

MTW provides music therapy to support and enhance communication, self-expression, and wellbeing. We work in a variety of settings including schools, hospitals, care homes and hospices to help people whose lives have been affected by injury, illness or disability through supporting their psychological, emotional, cognitive, physical, communicative and social needs. Our team of music therapists work with people of all ages. We provide music therapy to infants in palliative settings and to children with autism, special educational needs, learning disabilities, emotional, behavioural and communication needs. We also support adults experiencing mental health problems, dementia, bereavement, addiction, eating disorders, anger management issues and stress.
