Alzheimer Scotland

“We Sing Together Café” returns!…

Cappella Nova Outreach’s monthly dementia-friendly Singalong Sessions take place monthly at Alzheimer Scotland’s Resource Centre at 81-91 Oxford Street Glasgow G5 9EP, 1.30 for 2.00-3.00pm, usually on the third Friday afternoon of the month.  The Sessions feature anything from ‘Ten Green Bottles’ to ‘Moon River’ and ‘Morningtown Ride’ to ‘Mairi’s Wedding’ – as well as call-and-response songs and rounds – so expect plenty of well-known songs that are enjoyable to sing!

The Sessions are fully inclusive and are open to anybody who simply loves singing (which may include those living with dementia and their carers), so if you would be interested in supporting and participating, or want more information, please indicate this on the Contact Form.  Forthcoming dates can be seen on this Poster.
