Hi, I am the development worker for TorrAGE which is an organisation that help support the older people of Torridge. I am currently looking at new services and activities that can be provided and came across Singing for the brain. I would be most greatfull if somebody could contact me to discuss further and look into possibilties on how this could work in our area.
Kind Regards

Steve,
thank you for your mail. I suggest that you contact directly those people listed on the page you looked at. I will also pass your email to our contact for Singing for the Brain in Exmouth when we go there next. We can share with you our experience from the perspective of those who benefit from S4B.
Regards, Joanna de Groot
It would be great if Singing for the Brain sessions could be arranged in the Barnstaple/Bideford/South Molton area – Ilfracombe is not the best place to get to
