Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Singing group + resource pack

SPA is a community-based, 10 weekly singing group. Each SPA session comprises 30 minutes of settling in/wrap-up and departure, and 60 minutes of group singing. Sessions will be led by a community music leader, co-facilitated by a person with aphasia, and involve the group singing from a songbook. Musical accompaniment will be provided by the facilitator(s). Small percussion instruments will be available for participants, enabling involvement of those with limited singing ability. Intervention content integrates the Information-Motivation-Behavioural (IMB) skills model of health behaviour change to support individuals in developing the social skills and confidence needed to improve psychosocial outcomes. Participants will also receive the resource pack.
