DEMENTIA SINGING EXPERIENCE, SUSSEX 

We take structured and interactive singing, activity and craft sessions into community day care centres, Age UK or council run and dedicated care homes supporting those living with dementia and offering respite opportunities for carers. Our sessions are unique in the fact that we approach every individual and make sure that everyone feels relaxed and at ease.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
