Looping the Loop's Social Singing Sessions, in collaboration with East Kent Mencap's GOLD project, offer something truly special—a chance for people to connect on a deeper level through the simple act of singing. These sessions are about the real and raw experience of bringing voices together, creating a sense of belonging and community.

 

For participants from the GOLD project, who often live independently with minimal support, these sessions provide an outlet for creativity along side the opportunity to break free from isolation, to be part of something meaningful, and to experience the joy of collective expression.

 

The impact of these sessions is powerful. You can see people who might usually stay on the sidelines stepping into the circle, finding confidence in their voice, and discovering connections they didn’t expect. The energy in the room is palpable, as voices blend and barriers dissolve, turning a group of individuals into a community.

 

These gatherings are about creating a space where everyone, regardless of their background or abilities, feels welcomed and valued - they truly leave a lasting impact, offering participants a renewed sense of confidence, connection, and belonging that extends well beyond the final note.
