Summary

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a pervasive, insidious condition associated with catastrophic socioeconomic, healthcare and personal implications. This proposal outlines how a group singing intervention, led by clinical personnel and a community singing leader, can address these challenges. Built upon existing ties between the Principal Investigator (PI) and local COPD support group, this project is co-designed by patients and clinicians. Modelled on similar interventions internationally, this project is pioneering in Ireland. Outputs will include a participant-led symposium and three community COPD choirs, in addition to a number of academic publications. This project is funded by the Irish Research Council (IRC) "New Foundations" scheme.
