About us

The children love it when they hear their name mentioned and then the musician plays their favourite song. The sessions are so therapeutic, making us all happy and lifting the atmosphere.

Music in Hospitals & Care is a charity that improves the health and wellbeing of children and adults through the healing power of live music.

Every year, our professional musicians share live music with  people across the UK who may not otherwise get to experience it. This includes those living with dementia, mental health problems, or who are seriously ill.

Our specially-created live music experiences unlock all kinds of emotions – from joy to loss, pleasure to nostalgia. They improve people’s mental, physical and emotional health. And they help people feel more connected to each other.

Only with your support will we help more people benefit from the healing power of live music. Please give today.

  • It was lovely to witness some of the residents’ reactions as some surprised you at how much they were getting involved or remembering words. One resident with quite progressive Alzheimer’s was clapping in time and singing all the words to songs when normally she struggled with everyday communication.
