Bath Aphasia Choir

Southdown Methodist Centre
Contact name:
Laura Cook
The Aphasia Choir is an opportunity to meet other people who have been affected by stroke and aphasia, and build confidence. We encourage, empower and support through music and song. Aphasia is a difficulty with communication after a stroke or brain injury. This might be problems with speaking, understanding, reading and/or writing. Because music and singing is processed in a different part of the brain to spoken language, some people with aphasia find that they can sing easily, even though speaking is hard.
