I was fascinated to read this article today. Many thanks to Lisa for sharing it with me. It sounds an inspirational idea for those living with dementia.

Sadly the UK model based on Hogeway’s concept at Fartown, Huddersfield closed in 2014

Having provided entertainment to care home residents since 1996, I changed my focus in 2011 from simply providing entertainment to engaging and interacting with my audience so they were truly involved in the whole experience. With this vision, I created Motivational Music, my business which has been delivering interactive music sessions to my audiences ever since, encouraging everyone to get involved, make music, sing, move and most of all have lots of fun, in a loving, caring and supportive environment.
