Laura Cook, a music therapist, will talk about how music can help with rehabilitation, motivation and wellbeing after stroke.
You will learn about how music is processed in the brain, and how music therapists can use music and the brain’s ability to create new pathways after a stroke to support stroke survivors’ movement, cognitive skills and communication. We will talk about the Bath Aphasia Choir and how singing together is changing the lives of people affected by aphasia, with the chance to have a go at some of our vocal exercises and join us in a singalong!
