Bringing the Joy of Singing to People Living With Dementia
Singing has a remarkable ability to connect with people living with dementia. Even when other memories fade, music can unlock emotion, connection, and joy.

Bringing Music and People Living with Dementia Together
Umbrella Choir helps people connect through singing in many different ways.
Whether you want to sing at home, start a dementia choir in your community, volunteer a song, or be part of a growing network, there are many ways to get involved.
Accessible at Home
Choir at Home makes it easy to enjoy singing together from the comfort of home.
Our sing-along sessions use familiar songs and a relaxed pace, helping people living with dementia and their carers share moments of music, connection, and joy.
Bring a Dementia Choir to Your Community
You don't need to work everything out from scratch.
We've learned what it takes to build welcoming, successful dementia choirs — and we're turning that experience into everything you need to create one in your own community.
From getting started and finding members to planning sessions, choosing songs and keeping your choir running, we'll give you the practical guidance, resources and support to make it happen.
Umbrella Choir Network
Running a dementia choir can be incredibly rewarding — but you don't have to do it alone.
The Umbrella Choir Network brings choirs together, providing ready-to-use resources, practical support and shared learning to make running your choir easier.
Become part of a growing community of choirs, sharing ideas, experience and support while keeping your own local identity.
Share a Song
We’re creating a growing library of familiar songs for people living with dementia and their families to enjoy.
If you love singing and would like to help, you can volunteer to record a song that will bring joy to people around the world.

music speaks”
