Musical Moments is proud to announce that it has been selected as the regional winner of the FSB Franchise Business Award 2024 in Yorkshire and the Humber. This prestigious accolade recognises the outstanding performance and dedication of Musical Moments in the franchise industry.

At Musical Moments, we take pride in delivering interactive and inclusive music sessions that enrich the lives of residents in care homes and community groups. Our mission is simple: to harness the transformative power of music to uplift spirits, foster connection, and create joyful moments. With an extensive footprint that spans over a thousand care homes across the UK, we bring a one-of-a-kind experience to your doorstep. Our sessions feature live musical performances by our talented musicians, a blend of safe and invigorating exercise routines set to music, interactive activities enriched with sensory props, and the chance for residents to showcase their musical talents through singing and instrument performances. All of this is wrapped in a meticulously structured yet flexible format designed for optimal enjoyment. We strive to ensure that our sessions are inclusive and enjoyable for everyone present, aiming to bring joy and a sense of relief to both care home residents and staff members alike.

“Our passion for bringing the joy of music to care home residents, stems from a deep understanding of the profound impact it can have on their emotional, cognitive, and physical health,” says Managing Director Maggie Baker, recalling the joy of seeing a recent client – a generally non-verbal lady with dementia – able to sing along with the words of a much-loved song. “Music brings such joy and a sense of togetherness for people.”

Musical Moments prioritises the highest standards of quality and safety. They work closely within the Care Quality Commission (CQC) UK framework to ensure that their musical programs consistently meet and exceed industry standards for meaningful activity. Furthermore, their commitment to excellence extends to collaborating with a skilled team, including a Physical therapist and Music Therapist, ensuring that our sessions are not only enjoyable but also tailored to the unique needs of our clients.

The Franchise Business Award is a new category this year and aims to celebrate excellence in franchising across various regions in the UK, and we couldn’t be prouder to stand out among our peers for our innovative approach, commitment to quality, and positive impact on the community.

We were presented with the award at an exclusive FSB Award Winners networking event for Yorkshire and the Humber winners, which took place on March 22, 2024, in Leeds.

 

Winning in Yorkshire and the Humber also qualifies Musical Moments as an entrant to the UK Finals, which will be held in Blackpool in May. This further recognition underscores our position as a leader in the franchise industry and highlights our continued growth and success.

Musical Moments extends its heartfelt gratitude to all those who have contributed to our success – our dedicated team, passionate franchisees, supportive partners, and, of course, the wonderful communities that we serve. It’s your belief in us that drives us forward and inspires us to reach new heights.
