Referral and availability notes: Families can self-refer but in order to keep the group to a size that's not overwhelming, we have a waiting list and encourage people to join our new fortnightly 'singing for the brain' sings on zoom first. 1-1 support is available to become confident using zoom. Please phone and join that group. Places should be available in both our Great Blakenham group and the new Bury St Edmunds group we hope to start by September.

Our groups are run with the support of two singing leaders and a team of singing volunteers who help plan and evaluate what is and isn't working well!
