Forget-me-not Singing Club

The Forget-me-not Singing Club is primarily for people living with dementia or Parkinson’s disease and their family and friends, but anyone else who just fancies a good sing on a Friday afternoon would also be very welcome to join us!

Songs will be from a range of genres and eras – folk songs, pop songs, songs from shows and from our school days. The singing will be fun and friendly and there’s no need to worry if you think you are not much of a singer, or a bit rusty – all voices are welcome!

(I am also looking for people to help me during the sessions with things like handing out song sheets and making tea. If you would be willing to help, please let me know!)

I’m very happy to answer any questions you might have, and it would also be really helpful (although not obligatory) if you could let me know if you are planning to come along. This is so I can make sure I bring enough song-sheets, and most importantly, biscuits! Thank you!
