Chiltern Music Therapy

We want to make our music therapy sessions accessible to everyone.

Life can be busy and we wanted to create a space that removes barriers for families and carers to make sure there is support for anyone.

Through a number of different things, perhaps there is difficulty travelling or people struggle to find the time. Flexible support means more families can access therapy whenever and wherever they need it, in a place where they feel comfortable.

Isolation can have a huge effect on our emotional wellbeing. Particularly for those who may live with long-term conditions, have communication difficulties or circumstances that mean getting out and meeting others can be extremely difficult.

We believe that connection doesn’t always have to happen face-to-face. Through our online music therapy sessions, people are able to share music together whilst being able to have the opportunity to connect with others and most importantly, feel seen and heard.

One carer told us:
“As a wife and carer, I could see the difference after each session. I was very pleased when he started to come forward and talk.”

Sometimes, the changes can be quite small whether it be a short conversation or joining in with a song but those moments mean a lot.

Sometimes the biggest benefit isn’t leaving the house, it can be feeling connected again. Here at Chiltern, we’d love to help with that.

We LOVE that music has a wonderful way of bringing people together, helping to build confidence, encourage friendships, communication and social connections with no pressure other than to have fun.

When: Thursdays - 2.00pm - 2.45pm

Today is Friday 24th July, which means… it’s International Self-Care Day. ❤️

We all have different ways of looking after ourselves and it doesn't have to be anything big or expensive. Sometimes it's just taking a bit of time to yourself to do something that helps you switch off.

We caught up with some of our community musicians, music therapists and operational team to find out what they do to look after themselves. Their answers are a lovely reminder that looking after yourself can be as simple as making time for the little things that make you feel good.

What is your favourite thing to do to give yourself a break/self-care?

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us at our Community Voices 2026 event. Seeing so many people come together to celebrate our community and connect with each other through music was so special.

Events like Community Voices remind us why we do what we do. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who continues to support Chiltern Music Therapy. Whether you attend our events, champion our work, donate, volunteer or spread the word… your support means the world to us and enables us to continue bringing the life-changing benefits of music therapy to more people in the community.

We've put together a little event round up, we are so excited to see you at our next event!

Chiltern Music Therapy | This July, we were delighted to welcome lots of our community group members, families, carers, supporters and members of our local community to our annual Community Voices event at The White Hill Centre in Chesham.
