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.
