BEAT Parkinson's! - Group Drumming

The group plays Samba-based rhythms using a variety of percussion instruments, all provided, including surdos, snare drums and shakers - basically, anything you can hit!

No experience or musical background needed, and partners/carers are most welcome.

Typically up to about fifteen people attend, and the emphasis is on having fun while making a big noise. However, it is great for exercising motor control, multi-tasking, limb co-ordination and independence, and there is a bit of voice exercise thrown in as well - in addition to social chat.

£5 per session, with the first session at no charge.
