Mindsong’s Sing 2 Remember
Music is a powerful tool to reach out to touch people with dementia.
The power of music can create a sense of community to bring people together. Music can bring back memories and singing helps people reconnect with themselves and their life history, through the strong associations evoked by song.
The bond of singing together may help reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Singing is not only enjoyable, but it is also good for health, helping to improve posture and breathing and it can also significantly improve quality of life.
Mindsong's Sing 2 Remember is at The Keepers every firts and third Tuesday of the month 10:45 - 11:45am.
No booking is required. So come along and give it a try!
Craft and Chat!
Bring along your knitting, sewing, crochet or craft project and make new connections. This is a non-lead activity but come along to learn from others or be the one to share your expertise.
Once a fortnight on a Wednesday - 10a.m -noon
It will run alongside the weekly drop-in café, so it means there will be tea and cake!
Ukulele Club
Ukulele Club is open to beginners and those who already play.
1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month
New Time: 2.30pm - 3.30pm
Unleash your inner creativity through a structured session with a professional artist. For example you can make and decorate things in clay but you won’t be left alone and you don’t have to worry about “naturally arty” - our friendly tutors will guide you step by step. The classes are generally on every Thursday 9:30-11:30. Booking is necessary - open to Gloucestershire residents 19+ who are looking to build confidence.
More coming soon!
We hope to have more on offer soon. If you would like to suggest an idea to the Keepers Community Hub, please email thekeeperscommunityhub@gmail.com
