Impact of music on people with dementia to be analysed in three-year project
A musical “lifeline” for people with dementia could improve lives and reduce pressure on the NHS, according to organisers of a project which will analyse the effects of the therapy.
More than £1 million has been committed to making Greater Manchester the UK’s first centre of excellence for music and dementia, with a three-year programme, starting in October, delivering regular music cafes for more than 1,000 people living with dementia in the region.
