RIGHT TO MUSIC 

US


Dan Cohen is founder of Music & Memory a program that is 29 states and more 5000 senior living facilities.  Dan is passionate about  the research which confirms what we know intuitively, that music we love improves mood, facilitates social interaction, prompts movement and lessens the need for behavior-altering medications. Via Right to Music, it is his goal to advocate for systemic, ubiquitous use of personal music by families and health care professionals and their systems to improve both quality of life and quality of care. His presentations to all manner of long-term care associations, caregiver support organization, and healthcare professionals, often combined with the Sundance audience award winning documentary Alive Inside, promote the power of personal music and why access to musical favorites should not be optional, but recognized as a human right.

GORDON ANDERSON

MEMORY TRACKS

UK

  

Gordon has enjoyed an eclectic career, now entering its fifth decade! Despite early years in farming, it was working with the major record labels in the late 80s and 90s that set the pattern for a career in innovation and disruption. He helped the BBC enter the digital era with kids’ CD-ROMs and gaming, then spent a decade in disruptive start-ups across comedy, music, mobile, smart-home and poker. The marriage of music and healthcare is a natural culmination of these experiences, many connections, and disruptive thinking, combined with a desire to improve lives through simple ideas, particularly those less fortunate.

GRACE MEADOWS

MUSIC FOR DEMENTIA

UK 

 

Grace Meadows is Director of Music for Dementia, a national campaign to make music accessible to everyone as part of their dementia care. As a musician and music therapist, Grace has extensive experience of working with music to help enhance and enrich quality of life through music across the lifespan. When Covid struck and social distancing restrictions came into being, there was an immediate need to respond to the gap left by in-person music-based services for people living with dementia having to cease. This resulted in the creation of m4dradio.com, an online radio station designed with and for people living with dementia and their carers to help bridge the gap and ensure the music kept playing.
