Liverpool Philharmonic celebrate 15 years of 'Music and Health'

Liverpool Philharmonic’s Music and Health Programme is now the longest-running and largest of its kind.

Working across 27 wards in four partners NHS trusts, the programme has supported 18,000 individuals across the Liverpool City Region, conducted 15,000 hours of music-making, presented sessions in 50 health, social care and community settings and hosted 35 participant-led celebration events at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall.

To mark its anniversary, until October 20, current and past participants will take part in special performances both on the stage and in hospital wards, led by musicians from the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. Michael Crilly, director of Social Health and Community Inclusion, said: "Those of us connected to this partnership between Mersey Care and the Philharmonic over the last decade have witnessed first-hand the phenomenal impact that music has had upon the recovery journey of literally thousands of service users across all parts of our organisation.
