Sound Resource

Sound Resource promotes wellbeing through singing and music to adults in Oxfordshire. Since 2012 we have helped people feel the joy and social bonding available from singing and listening to music. We encourage anyone to take part, whatever their age or challenge, ranging from chronic breathing difficulties to the spectrum of people with progressive memory loss and dementia. ‘Moving Music’ is our specialist service reaching people with dementia and memory problems and their carers. Through informal concerts lasting an hour it lights up lives, and lifts people and their carers out of their daily routine in a warm and relaxed setting.

Mandala is also a place where young people come together to create, train, perform and belong. We employ, train and nurture artists and young people offering pathways into the Creative Industries.
