What happens when a GP surgery, healthcare musicians and a simple conversation come together?
Something really special. Music and Memory Matinees.
This creative health programme is designed for people living with dementia and for the people who care for them. It began with a conversation right here at Hannage Brook Medical Centre, and it’s already becoming so much more than music.
