Intergenerational Music Making

Members of the MAECare Stroke Club and the volunteer helpers were joined recently by approximately 20 boys from St Paul’s Primary School for a session with Indonesian musical instruments, “Anklung”.  Everyone was able to participate in the music making and enjoy the melodies they produced together.  Several of the children were heard to say “this is fantastic”; and the Club leader, Julie Harrison, felt that the activity was a fine example of intergenerational work.  After the music, the members had a quiz; one lady joked “I’ve had my brain well and truly stretched today”.
