Therapist Leads Choir, Connects Community

February 6, 2012 by Richard Allen Roe Leave a Comment

SOUTHPORT, AUSTRALIA — Essentially, the choir uses group singing to increase wellbeing and community connectedness, catching up and rehearsing weekly in Southport.  Music therapist, Angela Delaney, is the choir's conductor.  "People come by word of mouth or they're referred through support services. The people that come along are people that like feeling that they belong somewhere," says Angela.

 

"We've got people from 16 to 62, people from substance abuse rehab, to people that have been in placements in hospital, to community members, to school kids that are not fitting in, all sorts of people."
