The Singing Group

The Singing Group is an independent group in North West Edinburgh that provide opportunities for people with Dementia and their carer(s) to come together to socialise and to sing, with the emphasis on enjoyment and fun. There is a singing leader and an accompanist. Our repertoire is varied and is built upon requests from members.  We are not choirs, and do not aim for performances.

The Singing Groups offer stimulating and social activities designed to enhance well-being, and provide enjoyment and confidence to lives affected by memory problems and Dementia.

We meet for coffee and a chat first, giving people a chance to socialise and also to find help, advice or support from volunteers or other members of the group. After that, we sing together enjoyably and in a relaxed atmosphere for around 45 minutes.

 

We now meet on the 1st and 3 rd Wednesdays of the month, restarting on Wed 15th June following a 2 year closure due to Covid.
