What about instrumental groups?
We've teamed up with Making Music to produce similar guides for instrumental groups.
You can download these for free from the Making Music website.
Watch Making Music's webinar about music and Social Prescribing here.
Presented by SHN Manager Baz Chapman and Social Prescriber Sue Moorchild.
The Singing for Health Network, working with partners across the singing and health sectors, has created free, dowloadable guides for Social Prescribers/Link Workers and leaders of choirs & singing groups across the UK. These are designed to support successful referrals to choirs and a happier, healthier singing nation!
