The Bigger Picture: Family Work Forum

Following the popularity of the one-day meeting and series of seminars on the theme of music therapy with families, run by the BSMT, we are establishing a forum to bring together those wishing to continue sharing their experience and seeking to develop their networks and thinking in this field.

 The forum will provide an opportunity for sharing experiences of family work and discussion of issues arising for music therapists developing models of this work.

The first series of 3 meetings will be held on 7 May; 4 June; 2 July

PLEASE SEE 'DIARY DATES'/OTHER MEETS' FOR MORE INFORMATION
