Music & Health Ireland is a not-for-profit organisation that provides high quality music making opportunities in educational, healthcare and community settings.
As part of our day to day operations, we design, manage and deliver professional music projects and programmes in Healthcare and Community Settings around Ireland (Music & Healthcare), facilitate training courses and mentoring opportunities for musicians and healthcare staff on an adapted and tailored sensitive approach to participant-centered music interventions and interactions in healthcare settings, as pioneered and developed by Musique et Santé, Europe’s leading provider of “Music and Health” training (Training Notes)
Music & Health Ireland works with professional musicians from different musical backgrounds who all have appropriate clearances and training to provide new opportunities for music-making for communities.
Music & Health Ireland works in collaboration with national cultural institutions, universities, university nursing schools and local arts offices to develop and build partnerships in the areas of arts & health, and music education at county, regional, national and international level.
We are equally excited to work with national corporate organisations and local businesses to have a direct impact at local level working to hear and include all voices.
