A Choir in Every Care Home is a resource to support every care home to become a musical care home.

Equal Arts HenPower programme is now in more than 40 care homes and creatively engages older people in arts activities and hen-keeping to promote health and wellbeing and reduce loneliness.

Celebrating Our Beautiful Planet, a partnership between Paintings in Hospitals and Four Seasons Healthcare, will provide digital access to artworks for 8,800 care home residents.

Music in Care is an interactive ‘Musicians-in-Residence’ project in which care staff work with early career professional musicians to deliver engaging music sessions for older people in care, empowering staff to develop new skills and confidence to use music as part of their daily care routine. The project is currently working in 25 care homes across Calderdale and Wakefield, and in all acute wards across South West Yorkshire Partnership Foundation Trust.
