Wimborne Care Home Starts a choir that makes a difference!

The Memory Choir is an organisation with the aim of enhancing the wellbeing of people living with dementia through singing as a group.

There is a lot of evidence to show that singing provides people living with dementia, moments of memories that re-connect them to the present and to their loved ones.

Wimborne wanted to be part of a choir that is designed to connect all people living with dementia, such as those experiencing the condition, their family & friends, as well as carers and supporters. This rehersal also provides an opportunity to forge new friendships which add further support systems to their challenging daily lives.

Wimborne Care Home hosts this choir on the third thursday of each month at 2pm followed by fresh tea and homemade cake so you can not only enjoy singing and music but a social afternoon tea to meet and mingle with new friends.
