Opportunities: ParkinSings Songwriter
NEWS FROM: Choirs For Good
ParkinSings is a collaboration between Parkinson’s UK Cymru and Choirs For Good to offer uplifting community choirs for people affected by Parkinson’s and their carers in Wales.
Following a successful pilot and a further grant from Arts Council of Wales to continue the project, this next phase of ParkinSings (Sept 2025 – Aug 2026) will deepen our understanding of how group singing can benefit people living with Parkinson’s and their loved ones, and explore ways to make the project sustainable into the future. As part of this exciting next step, we are looking to commission a freelance songwriter to lead a creative and collaborative song-writing process with our participants across our 3 choirs, resulting in a bilingual ParkinSings anthem to be premiered in summer 2026.
