Skylarks moved to new premises in April 2023 from Simon Langton Boys, Grammar School to the Canterbury MS Centre as part of an ongoing partnership with PCIT (Parkinson's Centre for Integrated Therapy). The move has enabled excellent relationships to be established beeen likeminded charities and it has also given Skylarks the opportunity to share their mission within other contexts, e.g. Early Onset Parkinson's Conference and with other groups that use the MS Centre for therapies. Fortnighlly face-lo-face Skylarks, sessions at the MS Centre are alternated with fortnightly on Zoom. The combination is a positive one as it enables members from other Skylarks, groups from all over the country and even the world, lo join us. Certain exercises and singing activities have been shown lo work beller on Zoom and some face-to-face so the sessions have been tailored to these strengths. We are keen to introduce other fvjn activities that will help to relieve the symptoms of Parkinson's, such as singing whilst manipulating tennis balls and singing with the kazoo. The relationship with Langton Boys. is a very positive one. The school see their role as educating our 'Leaders of Tomorrow, lo the benefits of music and singing on all physical and mental wellbeing.
