A dementia-friendly singing group has celebrated 10 years of service to the community this week.

Musical Memories Springburn marked its 10th anniversary with a party at Springburn Trinity Church Hall.

The group meets every Monday at 2pm for 90 minutes of singing, gentle movement, tea, cake, and company.



Previous winner of the Glasgow Times Community Champions Award, the group provides a safe space for dementia sufferers, their carers, relatives, and friends.

Sessions are led by volunteers and feature familiar songs, occasional outings, and an open invitation for more volunteers.

While the sessions are well attended, the group still says there is room for a few more people.

Attendance is free thanks to support from Glasgow City Council Area Partnership, Allied Vehicles, staff at Low Moss Prison, Age Scotland, and public donations.

To find out more about the community group, call 0141 563 5511 or simply drop in on a Monday afternoon.
