Band for Life @ the Space
23 Feb - 23 FebBand for Life will be playing a set of well-known rock and pop tunes at the Space!
Band for Life is based on the belief that music brings people together; regardless of age, health, background, social situation, gender or ethnicity. The Project strives to create a culture of welcoming and openness through meeting and playing and sharing music together, drawing on the therapeutic effects of music making. Our members age 30-90 and we hope other people join in and feel the benefit too!
Tickets are pay what you choose so everyone can come down and join us!
Based in Bow, London E3, Band for Life is open to all members of the local community, particularly welcoming those experiencing mental health problems or who are socially isolated.
We have found that people benefit from participating in the project regardless of their level of musical experience or skill. We aim to both understand and support people’s issues whilst focusing on what people can do and achieve. Band for Life is facilitated by Sarah Wilson, a registered music therapist. It is one of a number of projects provided by The Methodist Church in Tower Hamlets seeking to offer hope and build communities of love within the borough.
