Delivered in collaboration with Bristol Dementia Wellbeing Service, Our Music Club provides free music sessions for adults living with dementia, and their households or supporters.

Our Music Club uses music to improve the participants’ quality of life and wellbeing, through joint music-making. Supported by three professional musicians, sessions provide a joyful and connective opportunity for people to be together.

Typically individuals with dementia will be accompanied by a supporter to this group. If you are someone who would like to come unsupported, please contact the community team.
