**About the role**
- MHA is the largest care charity in the UK: and a leading provider of award-winning music therapy in dementia care across the UK. In 2008 we started with just one music therapist and now we employ 30 highly skilled music therapists to work across 67 of our care homes offering dementia care.

You will be interacting directly with our care home residents through live music therapy sessions; this can be through singing, playing simple percussion instruments, or responding to musical cues, as well as the exchange of verbal, facial, vocal, and bodily expressions in a session. You will also collaborate with care teams, sharing insights and knowledge of residents’ changing needs, and helping to create positive ways of reducing stress and improving overall quality of life.
