Project title
Love Music
Description of initiative
Love Music is the monthly music sessions running on the third Tuesday of the month from 2pm-3:15pm thanks to funding from Arts Council England, Bromsgrove District Council, Bromsgrove Lions and Baron Davenport Charity. It’s suitable for older people including people living with dementia. It runs from Bromsgrove Methodist Church and is £5 per couple. Carers are welcome also. Organizers have a variety of musicians that deliver the hour sessions from jazz, folk, drumming, classical and rock n’ roll. They are all professional musicians and perform regularly. The music is mostly familiar to participants but sometimes it is also nice to hear a new piece of music.
