Singing for young people with health conditions

Inspiring Voices

We hear from Sally Spencer (Ex Cathedra’s Singing Medicine Programme and winner of Sky Arts Hero 2024) and Merel van der Knoop (Long Covid Kids), about children & young people who are hospitalised or living with Long Covid, and about singing as one of the rare things that isn’t “done to them” which can provide both mental and physical benefits.

Inspiring Voices is the podcast of the Sing Up Foundation. In this second series, co-hosts Baz Chapman and Celi Barberia chat with pairs of guests about the power of singing for young people, particularly those whose life experiences are likely to impact on their mental health.

The Sing Up Foundation believes in the power of singing to improve health and wellbeing – so listen in and be inspired!
