OUR MISSION
MISSION STATEMENT
Intergenerational Music Making aims to build bridges across generations, sectors and amongst professionals to create stronger, more cohesive communities.
Using the power of music we bring children, older people and communities together to create and connect. Through our projects, training and research we aim to encourage a sense of belonging to provide spaces for voices to be heard and celebrated. Our work aids the improvement of mental and physical wellbeing and reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation.
1. Improve community cohesion through intergenerational relationships
2. To reduce feelings of isolation and loneliness amongst all ages, particularly for those living alone and minoritised communities
3. To improve sense of self-worth and self-esteem for all ages
4. To empower individuals to be drivers of change within the music, health and community discourse
5. To encourage and nurture a network of connection across sectors, professionals, and generations; built upon intergenerational solidarity

INTERGENERATIONAL PRACTICE CONFERENCE AT ROYAL ALBERT HALL
Take a look at our IMM choir performing at the Intergenerational Practice conference at Royal Albert Hall. The conference was first of its kind, bringing together representatives and leaders across culture, housing, NHS and policy.
"This is wonderful to have the opportunity to have this every week. We haven’t seen anything like it and we love coming along and being able to meet people from our community."
