Music and Memories – Morningside Parish Church

A dementia friendly musical workshop for those living with dementia and their carers.

Held in the Cluny Hall every 1^st and 3^rd Mondays in the month 2 – 4 pm. You are welcome to attend any of these groups meeting in the Cluny Hall. Each group can offer 16 places.

We start each afternoon with an hour long music workshop led by the Forget Me Notes charity providing a chance to sing familiar and much loved songs, hopefully enhancing communication and offering opportunities to share memories. The teas and coffees will be on offer, a chance to relax and chat with others and in time, as the project develops, we hope to offer signposting to useful information and other services.

There is no charge for the group but donations are very welcome and help towards the group’s longer term sustainability.

If you are interested in attending please come along or for more information contact Jacqui Lindsay on the number or email below,
