SONGBOOK

We hope you enjoy listening to Sing for Victory and singing along.

When our Sing for Victory workshops take place in the museum, we encourage participants to be as active as possible. Some people are inspired to dance, tap their feet, play musical instruments or click their fingers.

The British Gymnastics Foundation has produced an age and dementia friendly, seated gymnastics programme called Love to Move which is transforming the lives of people living with dementia. They have produced an exercise booklet to help you try the Love to Move programme in your own home with your loved ones. It contains some of the key exercises and information about why the programme is so beneficial to health.

Try our age and dementia friendly chair-based gymnastics programme.

A guide to help you in your own home.
