Join me, Peggy‑Sue, on Swindon 105.5 from 8pm–9pm, as I welcome the wonderful Wiltshire Hope & Harmony Charity to the studio — the incredible team behind Wiltshire’s uplifting and life‑changing Dementia Choirs.
These choirs are so much more than singing groups. They’re safe, supportive, joy‑filled spaces where people living with Dementia — along with their families, carers and support staff — can come together, find connection, and rediscover their voice through the power of music. Every session is designed with care, compassion and positivity at its heart.
The charity’s founding member, Lisa Williams, first witnessed the transformational impact of music therapy during her master’s training in 2018 with the visionary Aphasia Choir at UWE. Inspired and determined, she set her sights on creating something just as meaningful here in Wiltshire.
Despite the delays of the pandemic, her dream came to life in 2023 with the launch of the Royal Wootton Bassett Dementia Choir & Café. Since then, the choir has supported hundreds of people living with Dementia and associated conditions — meeting weekly at St Bartholomew’s Church Hall or heading out “on tour” to care homes, community venues and churches across the area.
Tonight, we’ll be celebrating their story, their mission, and the incredible impact they’re making in our community.
Let’s fill your Tuesday night with hope, harmony, and heart.
