Voices of Aphasia Brief Description of Organisation We run accessible choirs for people with aphasia (communication difficulties after stroke or brain injury) to sing together with their loved ones. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Voices of Aphasia’s flagship project, the Bath Aphasia Choir, is an accessible and supportive singing group for people with aphasia and their loved ones to sing together. Aphasia is the term for neurological problems with communication and language,including speech, reading and writing. It can present after a brain injury (including stroke) which causes damage to the parts of the brain responsible for processing andproducing language. One third of people who survive a stroke will be left with aphasia, and a sudden loss of language ability can feel very frustrating and can leave people feeling isolated and depressed. Because music and singing are processed throughout the brain, some people with aphasia find that although they can’t speak fluently, they are still able to sing –particularly familiar songs. We know that singing, particularly in a group, can help to improve people’s mood and emotional wellbeing. This combined benefit has led to the creation of choirs for people with aphasia and other neurological conditions around the world, although ours was one of the first in the UK. Our choir is led by Music Therapists Laura Cook and Denise Wong. Through using accessible materials and communication techniques we support people with aphasia and their loved ones to sing together, and offer a supportive and understanding environment where people can share their experiences, practise their communication skills and make new friends. We sing uplifting and meaningful songs, and offer a safe and understanding space for people with aphasia and those who love and care for them to come together and support each other. The choir has been established for six years, with many founding members still attending. We recently held a fundraising concert with around 50 supporters attending, and currently we have around 20 active choir members joining our weekly choirsessions. We work closely with the Stroke Association and the HCRG Community Stroke and Neuro team in Bath and North East Somerset to signpost people with aphasia to our choir. We have also managed a student placement for MA music therapy students in Bristol, North Somerset and South Glos, in partnership with the Sirona Care and Health Integrated Community Stroke Service. We have previously received funding from St John's Foundation and we are currently supported by Quartet and National Lottery Awards for All. We would love to build more connection with other organisations supporting health and wellbeing through music and creative arts, and those involved in social prescribing initiatives. Please do get in touch through the 3SG website or email voicesofaphasia@gmail.com to get in touch with Laura and Denise!

Bath Autism and Neurodiversity Spectrums CIC Brief Description of Organisation Isolation reduction strategy within Bath and beyond for over 18s affected by neurodivergence. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Bath Autism and NeuroDiversity spectrums (BANDs) CIC As featured on the ITV West Country News at 6pm, Friday 11th November 2022 "No problem too big, no achievement too small", "Different spectrums, same aims" BANDs run social opportunities and meetings for over 18s who identify on the autism, Asperger syndrome and similar spectrums, including (but not limited to) AD(H)D, Non-Verbal Learning Disorder, dyslexia, dyspraxia, social anxiety, dyscalculia, Bipolar, Borderline Personality disorder, Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder, OCD and schizophrenia. Participants may attend the group regardless of a diagnosis. Anyone who identifies as having something similar to these conditions will be considered for inclusion on a case-by-case basis. Even most of the facilitators are neurodivergent. BANDs aims to provide a safe and welcoming environment for people, especially those without social opportunities which encourage peer-to-peer networking and developing and maintaining shared interests (Mazurek, 2013). The groups include a cinema group, café group and pub group (including the Christmas meal). The CEO is on hand to clarify and implement the guidelines of the groups (NAS, 2003). BANDs encourages anyone regardless of location to attend. To encourage independent travel by potential members (Walton and Ingersoll, 2013) on public transport, videos including directions can be sent to you on request. We can also help with public transport route planning on request. Attendees to the groups have to pay for any activities they participate in: the drinks, snacks, meals, cinema tickets, venue hire, transport to and from the groups. BANDs are seeking funding to pay volunteers' travel expenses to and from the groups, and are also hoping to hire a quieter location to create a self-advocacy group. This could enable people who experience sensory overload (Rohit, 2013), who prefer a more private venue first before transitioning towards the groups to attend. Mazurek. M.

Roseberry Road Studios CIC Brief Description of Organisation Roseberry Road Studios is a new exhibition and event site in Twerton dedicated to providing inspiring creative spaces for arts and media practice. The studios aim to support innovative and critical work across visual arts, music, performance, dance, and film Visit Website Full Description of Organisation Roseberry Road Studios CIC (RRS) is an emerging contemporary arts centre and exhibition space located in Twerton, Bath. RRS also provides affordable artist studios and acts as a hub for community events. Since opening in May 2023 over 2,000 people have attended cultural events in the building. RRS is based in a historic building by the river Avon in an area of Bath lacking cultural provision and increasingly characterised by new student accommodation developments. These developments struggle to promote positive integration and relationships with the existing community of Twerton which is amongst the 10% most deprived areas of England. This is added to Bath’s increasingly limited ability to provide affordable space and opportunity for its own creative community who are increasingly forced to to leave the area, making Bath’s creative sector increasingly reliant on external influences. The studios consist of two large gallery spaces that are adaptable for other uses. Whilst the holding of art exhibitions are central to the studios there is, as already proven, the ability to support lectures, film and media events, theatre performance, music and community gatherings. A riverside cafe and bar is also being set up within the building to generate revenue and provide social opportunities for local people, artists and students to integrate. There are also small studios available for rent for creative practitioners and small businesses. RRS intends to use it’s unique location to bridge the area of Twerton with the centre of Bath and provide a rich range of creative and cultural events that connect the local community, schools, universities, colleges, charities, artists groups and individuals to have positive impact on Twerton as well as the city of Bath, the region and also nationally and internationally.
