As a charity founded in the same year as the NHS and working to improve health and wellbeing through live music where people may not otherwise get to experience it, we have come a long way. But we still have further to go to ensure that live music is an integral part of health and care across the UK.
It is with great sadness we share the news that Sylvia Lindsay has passed away. Sylvia was the Director for the Council for Music in Hospitals, later to become Music in Hospitals & Care, for 20 years from 1972 to 1992.
