Songs & Smiles is an intergenerational music group for 0-4 year olds, their grown-ups and older people, held in care homes and assisted living schemes.
We sing, move, play, make friends and have lots of fun!
Our Songs & Smiles sessions are weekly, free/donate-what-you-can. Spaces are limited and first come first served, so to avoid disappointment please book your space now.
The sessions make people dance with joy, cry with laughter and create long lasting friendships so everyone has something special to look forward to. They are relaxed and informal and we even provide refreshments at the end!

From colourful scarves and shakers to bubble machines and action songs, there's plenty to stimulate the imagination and senses. Our sessions are informal and relaxed, they have been designed by specialists to make
them engaging and interactive for the youngest through to the oldest members of the group.The 60 minute sessions will enable you to make some new friends, while singing some of our favourite songs.
Our mission is for everyone to come away smiling, and we mean everyone - tiny babies, on-the-go toddlers, parents and guardians, older residents, people living with dementia, care home staff and our volunteers - we all have a great time.
