MUSIC AND THE BRAIN FOUNDATION

Since 2014 ... Music and The Brain Foundation has been at the forefront championing the use of personal music in the prevention, treatment and management of brain related disorders. As a registered Australian Charity the Foundation is committed to delivering evidence based health promotion programs which are community based, community centered and community driven. The Foundation does not fund academic research but does evaluate the effectiveness of its own programs within the community. The role of the Foundation is as a facilitator and enabler listening to community needs before giving practical application to national and international research through the design and distribution of bespoke products and services to improve public health and enrich the lives of individuals within their own neighborhoods.
