BRINGING THE JOY OF CREATIVE ARTS

TO PALLIATIVE CARE 

OUR STORY

Music In Hospices stemmed from a deeply personal moment between our founder, Joseph Cavalli-Price, and his mother in December 2019 who was end-of-life in a local Hospice.

The Music In Hospice Effect

WHAT WE DO

  • We don’t just do music. We provide a full provision of Creative Art services to our Hospices: allowing patients, family and staff to experience the arts in a way that is as joyful and dynamic as they are.

  • Our trailblazing instrument donation scheme, in collaboration with Orchestras for All takes used, refurbished orchestral instruments and donates them to children and young adults of Palliative Care patients; supporting their musical journey without financial burden and allowing them to make music in memory of their loved one.

  • We believe that all organisations must have a sustainble core. We do this in three ways.

    1. Circular Economy: our instrument donation scheme saves unloved instruments from landfill, instead refurbishing them and donating them to children and young adults of palliative care patients to ensure the joy of music remains accessible to all.

    2. ReWiding: in collaboration with ReWorld, we rewild acres of environmentally vulnerable land in memory of our patients and their families.

    3. Green Travel: we’re commited to green travel. UberGreen, Lime bikes or Train Line: we go green whereever possible.

  • We align ourselves wiih Hospice UK’s Dying Matters Campaign and Marie Curie’s campaign to fix end-of-life care and solve the worldwide issue of dying in poverty.

    We need to normalise the conversation around death, demystify hospices, improve palliative care services and introduce new, young voices into the space: to advocate Pallative Care as a cause for all generations.
