At danceSing we believe that everyone should be offered opportunities during their day to participate in meaningful activity that promotes their health and mental wellbeing.
Mental, physical and social wellbeing is key to optimum functioning and independence, such as life satisfaction, optimism, self-esteem, feeling in control, having a purpose in life, and a sense of belonging and support.
Created exclusively for the care home and care community, and developed in consultation with NHS healthcare professionals, the danceSing Care programme aims to maximise emotional, physical, creative, intellectual, and spiritual stimulation.
Let danceSing bring the magic of music and movement with their unique and innovative danceSing Care wellbeing programme.
