HOSPITAL WORKSHOPS - YOUNG PATIENTS PROGRAMme
The Young Patients Programme supports 6 young patients a year to have weekly online individual music lessons. Referred to us by the paediatric team at St Mary’s Hospital, we provide lessons to young people with long term health conditions, who have limited opportunities to take part in music-making activities.
The young patients programme began as part of our Hospitals’ work, in lieu of our face-to-face visits on the wards. The scheme aimed to support young people with medical conditions who were forced to shield due to Covid-19. Our partners Imperial Health Charity identified patients who would benefit from one-to-one music tuition delivered via zoom.
““I am extremely grateful to you for organising this and indeed to The Rhythm Studio Foundation. I would be most grateful if you could pass on my thanks and recognition.””
““..it has been a big hit with all of our families, with nurses also saying there has been a visible improvement in the children they work with when they come in for treatments…..it would be great for their input to continue.””
““For us as a family, Drew being give this wonderful opportunity has been brilliant, a bit of sun on a gloomy situation. He’s looked forward to every lesson and Kaja is an amazing teacher. Online lessons have taken nothing away from the experience, lessons are well structured & Kaja is patient, enthusiastic and brings out the best in Drew.””
