A wonderful morning at Zest Music Day!

Trustees Jo Palmer, Andy Flatman and myself spent a wonderful morning at St. Elizabeth Hospice today, having been invited to a Zest Music Day. Many thanks to Cath Markham and all the staff at Zest for making us feel so welcome. It was a privilege to be a part of Daisy Williamson’s group music therapy session and to see the enormous difference that music is making to these young people.
Whether it be keeping time on the drum, strumming the ukulele or guitar, shaking the tambourine, playing the windchimes, hitting the steel drum or relaxing to the beautiful sound of Daisy playing the harp while the parachute creates a gentle breeze – there was something for everyone to enjoy and to feel involved in.
In the afternoon Daisy had one-to-one sessions planned. These are tailored specifically to the individual’s needs and have become very popular.
These Zest Music Days are held once a month and are completely funded by Jess Grant Celebration. Please help us to continue funding this invaluable service at Zest.
