A second Centre of Excellence for Music and Dementia is being sought as part of the Power of Music Fund, supported by the Rayne Foundation.
The focus of the new centre will be enhancing the health and social care workforce’s ability to integrate music into dementia care. It will operate alongside the first Power of Music Centre of Excellence for Music and Dementia that was announced in May 2024 and reported on by us here: https://journalofdementiacare.co.uk/centre-of-excellence-for-music.
The selection process for the new centre, which will be in one place or region in England, runs from October 2024 to February 2025, with the successful proposal being awarded in March 2025.
The deadline for initial Expressions of Interest is 5pm on 31 October 2024.
