With Music In Mind

With Music In Mind With Music In Mind C.I.C. runs informal singing, exercise and social groups for people aged 50+. All our groups run at regular intervals during the daytime.

With Music In Mind's singing and exercise groups for people aged 50+ enable our older members of the community to get together to sing, socialise and have fun whilst forming new friendships and gaining confidence through peer support. Our singing groups are led by a musical director and involve singing, chatting and other activities that are suggested by the participants. Anyone of any background

and singing ability can take part. It really doesn't matter whether individuals can sing as the benefits of singing are relevant to all. These benefits include increased confidence, stress reduction, improved quality of life and improved wellbeing and general health. Our exercise groups follow a similar structure and are led by qualified instructors. All exercise can be completed standing or seated, and there is never any pressure. There are many proven benefits to exercise for both physical and mental health. Groups are intended to be an ongoing, long term support network so that individuals can attend for as long as they want. As groups increase in size and reach capacity, new groups will be created to accommodate growing numbers. With Music in Mind is a Community Interest Company, so any funds raised will go directly into service provision for the benefit of service users.

We're getting really excited about our new group, which starts next week!

This new seated exercise group pilot will run for six weekly sessions, beginning Thursday 20th August, and is intended for anyone aged 50+ who wants or needs to exercise sitting down. The exercises will focus on strength, balance, and flexibility, and will be followed by 20 minutes of relaxation, before tea and coffee.

There's no pressure and our sessions are always very relaxed, so if you would like to do some exercise but have been worried that you don't have enough mobility, this could be the perfect group for you!

We're excited to announce that we're trialling a brand new group!

Cowbridge Seated Exercise Group will run weekly at the Scout Hall on Thursday afternoons, 2:30-4pm, for a six week pilot beginning on 20th August. Unlike our three existing exercise groups, in which all the exercises can be performed seated or standing, this one is intended for those who wish to exercise sitting down, and so is perfect for those with limited mobility.

The first 40 minutes of our group will consist of gentle exercises focusing on strength, balance, and flexibility, and this will be followed by 20 minutes of guided relaxation - and then some well-deserved tea and coffee and a chat!

This group is open to anyone 50+ who would like to exercise sitting down, and costs £7 per session. No booking necessary, just turn up and join in!

Last year we celebrated our ten year anniversary🥳 and one of the things we did to celebrate was to commission a new impact video. It's now all finished and ready to view, so here it is!

Our film was directed, filmed and edited by Will Philpin, produced by When It Rains Creative, and features many of our members, volunteers and staff. Thank you so very much to everyone who contributed. We hope you all enjoy watching it and spotting yourselves and your friends!🍿💙

Our group member Frank very kindly recorded this video for us recently to talk about what a difference With Music In Mind has made in his life. Frank first found us when looking for support for his wife Joyce after her dementia diagnosis, and has continued to attend our singing and exercise groups and lots of activities at Y Galon since she sadly passed away. Thank you so much Frank for sharing your story, we're so glad that coming to our groups has helped you💙

This is Frank's story about the value of With Music In Mind, and th...
