Our History

  • Forget-me-not Chorus was born out of a successful project run by Welsh National Opera and Cardiff & Vale Alzheimer’s Society in 2010. Registering as a charity in 2013, FMNC has grown from one Cardiff-based pilot choir to an innovative, pioneering service now accessed across the UK and beyond.

Our Vision for a better future

  • Forget-me-not Chorus uses the power of song to support those living with and alongside dementia. Inclusive sessions - in care home, community, hospital, and online settings - empower and connect people in a way that is unique and life-affirming. Our pioneering approach uses music as a tool for meaningful communication and engagement in the present.

Our goals to make a difference

  • To bring joy and meaning back into the lives of those living with and those affected by dementia through the power of shared song

  • To empower those impacted by dementia, offering the opportunity to share the joy of music in a safe, supportive and normalising environment

  • To inspire all to participate to the best of their abilities in a community of understanding

  • To give those impacted by dementia a meaningful artistic platform to express themselves in song: restoring pride, challenging stigma and raising awareness

  • To work to the highest possible standards, adhering to our core value of excellence
