We are excited to announce a new partnership with Age Connects Torfaen. Thanks to funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, we will be able to share live music twice a month for the next two years.
It's Creativity and Wellbeing Week and we're celebrating the role that live music plays in patient recovery at Ty Llidiard, an inpatient care facility for young people with severe mental illness.
Since January we have been sharing weekly live music and visual art experiences at Tŷ Llidiard, a residential NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) in Bridgend.
