Canterbury Cantata Trust is a charity helping people of all ages and abilities to improve health and wellbeing through active participation in singing.
For over 12 years, Canterbury Cantata Trust has brought people together through the power of song. From its flagship choirs Amici and Cantata, to inclusive Monday Music sessions in Canterbury and Folkestone, the focus is clear: singing for physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.
The Trust also supports a growing network of singing groups for people with Parkinson’s and other neurological conditions – across the UK and beyond – proving that music truly knows no boundaries.
Over a decade of collaborative research by our Founder led to the creation of the Trust as an umbrella organisation, built on the belief that singing is good for you and can be a powerful way to care for others.
Grenville’s research was undertaken in partnership with the Sidney De Haan Centre for Arts and Health, and the Trust continues to drive ground-breaking research into the beneficial effects of singing on health, with a particular focus on sufferers of dementia and Parkinson’s disease.
