We are delighted to have received a new grant for just over £30,000 from The National Lottery Community Fund so that more people isolated in healthcare settings can experience the healing power of live music through our #MusicEveryDay live stream sessions.

As part of our Play it Again SAV! project, a songwriting pilot ran in late 2019 with veterans at Scottish War Blinded, Erskine and Royal British Legion Scotland centres.

In January 2019, Music in Hospitals & Care received two grants from the Darkley Trust and the Arts Council of Wales to provide Dementia specific communication training days for our musicians working in Wales. Throughout the Spring we organised three training events, which took place in Wrexham, Swansea and Cardiff.

Students on Royal Birmingham Conservatoire's Music, Community and Wellbeing module will be observing professional musicians from Music in Hospitals & Care over the next two terms as part of an ongoing partnership with the institution.
