Spreading Joy and Connection: Positive News

We've got some fantastic news to share:

The Together Project's Songs & Smiles intergenerational sessions are making waves in the world of positive mental health, and they've caught the attention of none other than Positive News!

In an article, in the recent edition of Positive News, our heart-warming Songs & Smiles sessions were highlighted as one of the incredible UK projects making a difference in people's lives. From video games to songs, growing food, and more, these initiatives are shining examples of the power of community support in fostering wellbeing.

Transformative power of music and connection

At The Together Project, we believe in the transformative power of music and connection, especially in the realm of mental health. Our Songs & Smiles sessions bring together people of all ages— from little ones and their grownups to older people living in care homes — to sing, dance, and create beautiful memories together.

So, what makes Songs & Smiles so special?

It's all about the magic of intergenerational connection. Little ones giggling as they clap their hands, older people swaying to the beat, and parents joining in with the fun. It's a heartwarming symphony of joy and togetherness that transcends age and brings smiles to faces of all ages.

But it's not just about the music; it's about the profound impact these sessions have on mental wellbeing. Research shows that engaging in intergenerational activities like Songs & Smiles can reduce feelings of isolation, boost mood, and promote a sense of belonging and purpose for participants of all ages.

Being featured in Positive News is not just a recognition of our work; it's a testament to the power of community and the incredible impact we can have when we come together to support one another. It's a reminder that in a world filled with challenges, there is always hope, connection, and support available.

So, let's celebrate the magic of Songs & Smiles and the incredible work being done by projects like ours across the UK. Together, we can continue to spread joy, connection, and support to individuals and communities far and wide.
