Greetings,
Welcome to the first edition of Notes from the Heart. This weekly E-Zine will be delivered to your mailbox each Wednesday. I aim for this weekly communication to be brief, useful, inspiring and perhaps even entertaining at times!
I will also be publishing a monthly Notes from the Heart that will be written expressly for the people we all serve – the seniors. This newsletter will be sent to you via email but it will also be available in a print ready form on my website so that you can download it and print it to hand out to current and prospective residents, family members and staff.
What’s the point of all this? Well, I believe so strongly in the power of music and singing to enrich the lives of seniors, and especially those with memory loss, that I feel compelled to do all I can to spread the word. So here we go!
Yours in song,
Mary Sue

Thought for the week:
Before there was Prozac there was music.
