Background

SEN Foundation is partnering up with a team of Occupational Therapists at Haven of Hope Christian Service to launch a community choir in Summer 2021. This project reflects our beliefs for bottom-up empowerment and our effort to tailor interventions for each unique individual using professional assessments and research. The Choir brought together 22 young choristers with a range of special needs - They attended choral workshops and an occupational therapy assessment before their training, allowing our therapists and music educators to understand them and design their specific needs. This programme aims to empower the participants to appreciate music and creatively using it to express themselves, it also brought Rivertones members (with special needs) and ReLive members (with physical disabilities) opportunities to engage with a wider community through performances and a final graduation concert to conclude the programme.

What we have

(1) Experienced music educators and project management team to work with (2) Training on disability services (3) Contact database

Why this is important
