Music map launched to help alleviate distressing symptoms of dementia

Music for Dementia 2020 is launching the first ever Musical Map for Dementia. Its aim is to provide those affected by the condition with information on music-based events and services in their area. As music has a wide range of benefits for people living with dementia, the campaign is calling on individuals and organisations such as choirs, music groups, music therapists from across the country to come forward and submit their details to the map to help make life easier for people with dementia and to give back the gift of music. The campaign has been working collaboratively with BBC
