Singing for health
I have sung all my life, and continue to be blown away by how transformative it is for my mental health, particularly when I am singing with other people. However, I'm not alone in this respect - by now there's a wealth of research evidence demonstrating the positive effect that singing in a group can have on all sorts of areas of health and wellbeing. You could even say it's a public health intervention!
I am a member of the UK Singing for Health Network, have trained as a Singing Mamas leader, and run regular and one-off song sharing groups for women, families, and workplaces.
Singing Mamas - South London
I run weekly term-time Singing Mamas sessions in South London, a friendly song sharing group for women where songs are learned by ear:
-
Tuesday 10.00 -11.30 in Streatham Vale (The Vestry room, adjoining Holy Redeemer)
-
Thursday 10.15-11.45 in Herne Hill (Carnegie Library Hub)
No prior experience of singing is necessary; we sing for connection, not perfection!
