Our music-making project for people living with dementia and their carers, ReConnect, brings people together through music to improve wellbeing and quality of life, whatever a person's age or stage.
You do not need any musical skill or experience to take part! In these videos, we aim to create a sense of connection and intimacy.
You can work through the videos in order to enjoy a balance of relaxing and active experiences, or simply select one or two that suit you right now. Our ReConnect videos offer lots of ways to engage and the playlist includes:
- well-known music, easy to recognise
- gentle, relaxing music
- energising music
- music to play along with
- music made up on the spot, to play or move with
- music for listening
- a welcome and goodbye song (particularly useful for group leaders)
The resource is available online or you can order a free copy of the DVD on our website.
