Stephen Hunt and the St Lukes 'Memory Lane Choir' showcase the incredible power of music for people living with dementia. Sighting published research and ancient human practices, Stephen explains how playing familiar music can significantly improve the lives of people living with advanced dementia by grounding them back to a place of familiarity, reducing anxiety while improving cognition. 'Precision Music' (music that is personally significant to an individual and that can alter their emotional state), can help slow cognitive decline for dementia patients and provide an immense amount of joy for both them and their families. Stephen invites you to try it yourself by revisiting music from your past and experiencing the magic of 'Precision Music' together through singing. Stephen Hunt is a serial entrepreneur who created his first company when he was 24 years old (a not-for-profit charity to tackle HIV/AIDS education). An accomplished musician, Stephen played music to pay the rent before pioneering online video advertising in the Australian market, through two successful startups. His passion for music led him to a senior role in the world's biggest music company (Universal Music Group) where he met his future co-founder, Nicc Johnson. Together they decided to transform healthcare with music - and founded Music Health in 2020. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I feel quite emotional watching this as I only just lost my Mum to Dementia. She had a passion for music, especially her chosen instrument the Clarinet. During our last weeks together I played her music to her - she smiled. It was beautiful. Thank you Stephen Hunt for everything you are doing to change Dementia sufferers quality of life and put some sunshine in their world.

Awesome! Please share it with your family, friends and network on any platform you prefer. It’s a simple thing anyone can implement for someone living with dementia but too few people understand why. Please help me change that. Thanks for the kind words! Steve.

@@stephenhunt3462 Thank you, Stephen, I will share it. I was my Mom's caregiver and I would put the band, Abba's music videos on the TV in the morning to help get her motivated to get out of bed for washing up and breakfast. I would sing and dance for her, too. She would just smile at me and sometimes laugh. It made me so happy to make her happy!
