Creating Music with the Radford Care Group
New Partnership Brings Music to Redford Care Centre
OPUS Music CIC has partnered with Redford Care Centre to introduce music sessions aimed at enhancing the emotional and physical well-being of older adults. The collaboration began after a staff member at the centre completed Music Care training, sparking the idea to integrate music into their care routine. A successful trial session received enthusiastic feedback from both participants and staff, leading to discussions about making the sessions a regular feature.
Ben Armstrong, Project Manager at OPUS Music CIC, said, “We are excited to expand this partnership and bring ongoing musical joy to those who need it most.”
