We meet weekly during term times on Friday afternoons. We use targeted warm ups to strengthen the voice and help breathing function, and sing familiar songs together. We have also written our own songs as a group.

Many people with aphasia find that they can sing fluently even though speaking is difficult. Singing can help to raise your mood and support language redevelopment.

We have a break with refreshments during the sessions.

Suggested donation - £2.50 per person, per week.
