A new choir will offer a fun yet effective form of speech therapy for people with Parkinson’s in the Harrogate district.
It will be led by musician Rhiannon Gayle, supported by staff from speech therapy at Harrogate District Hospital.
Each session will offer gentle exercises and fun songs, as well as time to socialise, at the Green Hut on Harlow Avenue, Harrogate, each Monday afternoon.
Research has shown singing helps to improve breathing and voice control in people with Parkinson’s, and group singing is also known to improve mental health and wellbeing.
