Iʼve raised £525 to help fund the purchase of two large monitors and stands for our members, the 'singalongs' are so important for people with dementia.

- Funded on Friday, 10th September 2021

Story
Using a large monitor and stand on wheels allows us to bring a screen to where it is needed within our group. The words are bright and large, with clear 'singalong' music.
Unfortunately we only have one very old monitor being used between three different venues. It is a very difficult, heavy piece of equipment to dismantle and move around.
We are trying to raise enough funds to purchase two more units, which will be new and light weight, and can be stored safely at the venues and used weekly and bi-weekly in our sessions.
We already have nearly £250 from The Cherwell lottery good causes grant, and are kindly asking for help to raise the rest.

3 years agoThank you all so much, I am going to keep this going for a little while longer and maybe fingers crossed we will have enough to either buy a third unit, or a much bigger screen!! Thank you all once again
