Love Your Lungs event coming to Bemerton Heath

Local community group Sounds Better CIC has announced a one-off Love Your Lungs event on Bemerton Heath.

The event takes place on Thursday 10th, October at Bemerton Heath Centre from 2:30 until 4:30 pm.

After the success of their recent Love Your Lungs event in Wilton in April, Sounds Better has decided to hold another event—this time continuing their established work on Bemerton Heath, strengthening existing links, and helping to spread the word about lung health.

The event will feature information about living with lung conditions, with signposts to local and national support for breathlessness and lung conditions.

Respiratory health professionals will also be on hand to offer advice and guidance.

In addition, there will be a Singing for Lung Health session where participants can discover the benefits of singing for managing breathlessness and lung conditions.

The Salisbury Breathless Singers group, which meets weekly in Wilton, will also attend.

Liv McLennan, Director of Sounds Better CIC, says: “Our last Love Your Lungs event was really positive, and we’re looking forward to reaching more people on Bemerton Heath. We’re really passionate about the benefits of singing and music in general for improving wellbeing. We want to help as many people as possible who are living with breathless and lung conditions, and we hope that a performance by Salisbury Breathless Singers will demonstrate that we can learn to manage and improve breathing whilst also having fun.”

This event has been made possible through funding from the Wiltshire Community Foundation.

Sounds Better CIC also runs Salisbury Breathless Singers on Tuesdays in Wilton and online via Zoom, as well as 6-week introductory courses in partnership with Salisbury’s Parish Nurse at various venues around Salisbury and simultaneously online via Zoom.
