Singing St Andrews: Dementia Friendly Performances
Our interactive Dementia Friendly performances take place at Hope Park & Martyrs Church on every third Wednesday of the month from 2-3.30pm and they are completely free.
The performances are open to people with dementia who enjoy singing, the benefits of it, and who are still able to live at home in the community. The group also provides support for their carer(s).
Please note due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation these sessions are currently suspended and we hope that they will begin again on 15th July 2020.
15-18 October 2020
The full programme for the 2020 festival will be revealed in Summer 2020 - please sign up to our mailing list here to be the first to hear the programme.
