Music4Wellbeing
Description
Music4Wellbeing helps older people live happier, healthier lives through music and other creative activities.
They run 200 sessions per year across Kent and South London, supporting older people experiencing cognitive, mental, physical and social life challenges, from dementia to loneliness. In Kent alone, almost 30,000 people aged over 65 are at risk of loneliness, and 25,000 live with dementia, with numbers only rising. Music4Wellbeing are ready to grow to meet the need, but they need extra capacity to make it happen.
With our funding, they will hire their first CEO to focus on business planning and securing sustainable funding. They will also be able to train more volunteers. Together this will help them grow their services and reach more people.
