Welcome to the Singing for Health Network - a UK-based professional membership network for anyone interested or involved in leading Singing for Health, including singing practitioners, researchers, health and healthcare professionals in the UK and across the world. We bridge research and practice and provide a platform for sharing practice and opportunities.

​

The Network builds on - and signposts to - existing provision and provides a useful platform for practitioners, researchers and anyone interesting in finding out more about Singing for Health. We support new and emerging voices as well as established researchers and practitioner-researchers.

​

We are delighted to be supported by a range of partners and experts in the field of Singing for Health, not least key figures in the Singing for Health movement such as Phoene Cave, Prof. Stephen Clift, Dr Daisy Fancourt and Prof. Grenville Hancox.

​

And if this all sounds useful, then we warmly invite you to join the network as a member and make use of our news, resources and events!

WELCOME!

The Singing for Health Research Project is delighted to announce the launch of our 12-part webinar series.

A collaborative enterprise between the Singing for Health Network, the International Centre for Community Music, and the Royal College of Music, the series brings together musicians, researchers and health professionals together from across the globe. The webinars will all be chaired by Dr Stephen Clift.

While our understanding of the link between singing and health has grown substantially over the past 20 years, we have more to do to evidence the potential contribution of singing to our health, exploring the mechanisms at play and highlighting effective practice. This gathering of researchers and practitioners is an opportunity for knowledge exchange, future collaboration and a reflection of the current state of knowledge. From here, we can begin to propose strategies for future research and practice as an international community.

​The series runs from September 2024 to March 2025 in four cycles of webinars around the key topics of:

​

  • Mental Health & Wellbeing

  • Voice Function & Communication

  • Cognitive Benefits​

  • Breath


We are grateful to our research contributors who are leading international figures in the field. Together, they are presenting their most recent research, and providing a compass for topic discussions, skill sharing and reflection. We are shining a light, too, on the role of the practitioner, together with the participant's voice. This unique series provides an opportunity for both the theoretical and practical to learn and inform one another’s practice.
