One last singalong at Sunflower House! Since 2011, our ever popular Smiling Sessions have brought singalongs, smiles, and the odd emotional moment to care homes across Folkestone. But sadly, – our final session at Sunflower House is coming up, and we’d love to go out with a proper feel-good bang! Thursday 19th June, 2:15–3:45PM, Sunflower House, Foord Road. It’s FREE, it’s FUN and it’s musical. There’ll be tea, biscuits and laughter. Everyone is welcome! Huge thanks to Arts Council England, Kent County Council & Social Enterprise Kent for making the magic happen.

Heartfelt Music for the Folkestone Community! Live music truly possesses the remarkable ability to uplift spirits, foster connections, and brighten anyone's day. We are absolutely delighted to bring this joy to our wonderful local community here in Folkestone. Since 2011, our dedicated professional musicians have been leading "The Smiling Sessions," a beloved group singing activity. These sessions have consistently brought about joyful singalongs, sparked cherished memories, significantly boosted moods, and wonderfully united individuals within care homes. We are, however, very sad to announce that our upcoming session at Sunflower House Community Centre will, regrettably, be our last for the foreseeable future. We would be incredibly grateful if you could share this news with all your friends and acquaintances so that as many people as possible can join us. We warmly invite you to come along and participate in a delightful singalong that promises to bring a smile to your face and warmth to your heart. These sessions are thoughtfully designed to support emotional well-being and help build meaningful social connections, particularly for our cherished senior community members. Our FREE final session is scheduled for Thursday, June 19th, from 2:15 PM to 3:45 PM. It will be held at Sunflower House, 45 Foord Road, Folkestone CT19 5AE. Everyone is most welcome, so please feel free to bring a friend or a family member to enjoy the music together! We will be providing songbooks, along with refreshing tea and delicious biscuits. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to our valued funders: Arts Council England, Kent County Council, and Social Enterprise Kent. Their invaluable support has been absolutely instrumental in making these heartwarming sessions possible. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send us a direct message.
