Who we are
Intergenerational Music Making is a national not-for-profit organisation bringing people of all ages together. Rooted in music and powered by creative intergenerational health, we reduce loneliness, boost wellbeing and build stronger, more connected communities.
What we do
We bring generations together through creative intergenerational health rooted in music and powered by diverse interventions from art to sport to gardening. Our programmes, training and research inspire connection, understanding and lasting community change.
How we do it
We use music as a vehicle to connection, fusing together our music therapy and community arts knowledge with sports, nature and creativity to bridge societal gaps and connect people of all ages.
Who is it for?
Our services benefit people of all ages and abilities. We work across care homes, retirement communities, nurseries, schools, hospitals and community spaces to tackle isolation, reduce loneliness and improve mental health and wellbeing.
