Meet James

Meet James
Communicating isn鈥檛 easy for James. He has Cerebral Palsy, visual impairment and learning difficulties. Spending his days in a wheelchair, he has little energy to move his body, and he doesn鈥檛 speak much. But like most 14-year-olds he loves music.聽聽

The power of music

The power of music
In one of his favourite parts of the week, James gets to see music therapist Sam for their session at his school for children with complex needs. James finds the energy to sing, and to dance; he raises his arms and moves his body to the music.

Music can transform lives

Music can transform lives
Nordoff and Robbins work in schools, hospitals, care homes and their own centres. The positive impact on physical, social, mental and emotional wellbeing can be transformative. A session like the one James has with Sam costs 拢80.聽 聽聽
