Singing for Wellbeing
Throughout 2023, Shropshire Music Service ran a series of workshops in primary and secondary schools across the county which focused on singing for lung health and wellbeing. Co-funded by NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, the workshops focused on basic vocal exercises to help improve symptoms exacerbated by asthma and associated anxiety.
Over 90% of participants experienced improvement in their lung health over the period of ten weeks. The workshops were so well-received that parents and carers wanted to continue with these exercises in the home. Based on this fantastic feedback, our vocal teacher, Beatrice Floyer-Acland spent a day in the studio with our friends at Opus Media Productions to produce a series of videos sharing safe and effective exercises that can be used in any setting.
We’re delighted that our Singing for Wellbeing programme was able to help a number of children in Shropshire and hope that our videos can help many more.
