🎧 Launching 12 May: Singing For Our Minds – The Podcast 🎧

As we enter Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re excited to introduce Singing For Our Minds — a new podcast and free educational resource created to help group singing leaders build inclusive spaces that welcome and support people living with a range of mental health experiences.

Hosted by Jeremy Haneman, Aga Serugo-Lugo, and Nicola Wydenbach, the series brings together voices from across music and mental health to explore how choirs can become places of care, connection, and community.

Across 8 episodes, you’ll hear from guests including Tom Herring (Sansara), Edward Price (BBC Singers), Darren Abrahams (Hive Mind), Nadine Benjamin MBE, Zena Edwards, Amy Bebbington (Harlequin/Wavelength), Naveen Arles (New YVC), Ian Noonan (University of Huddersfield) and Dr Yoon Irons (University of Derby).

🎙️ Expect open conversations, practical insights, and real tools to help transform your singing group into a space where every voice is valued — and supported.

📅 All episodes available from 12 May 2025.
Follow us and listen wherever you get your podcasts

Thank you to all who supported Katie Rose and her singing action to save the carers centre. The fight continues. Please sign the petition

Carers need a carer centre base not some light lonely online stuff that is impersonal and unconnected.
