Musicians in Healthcare



We make music with people of all ages, from birth to end of life, giving the gift of music at a time when people can be most vulnerable, isolated and feeling low.
Our musicians are trained as Musicians in Healthcare through European partnerships led by Musique & Sante in France. We are a UK leader in Music in Healthcare practice, with over 10 years experience of making music, for and with people in care settings and at the bedside on hospital wards.
We currently work with hospitals, care and mental health settings across the UK East Midlands. Our network of Trainees, Apprentices and Associates deliver practice nationally and internationally.

Creativity and Wellbeing Week 2023
For many of us creativity can be a way to express our feelings and boost our mood. This may be through music making, singing, dancing, painting, and a host of other practices. Sometimes it can be the creativity in the world around us that inspires us and offers a space for calm reflection. This week we’re asking, ‘What do you do to support your mental health?’
