Singing Mamas groups offer a space for women of all ages to learn simple songs by ear with time for chat and connection. You are welcome to bring babies and small children along. Groups run during term time in Impington and Cambridge.
This activity is good for wellbeing because
- singing has been proven to be good for mental wellbeing and boosting mood;
- time for chat at the end of each session means it's a good way to meet people;
- the songs are learned by ear so you don't need to read music or have any experience of singing in a group - this means are sessions are great for nervous singers or people who want to learn a new skill.
"I’ve been going to my local Singing Mamas for the past few years and absolutely love it!"

What to expect
The groups offer an opportunity for women to learn songs, sing in a supportive group and enjoy company and connection. No previous singing experience is required. The songs that the groups sing are gentle and positive, and there are no nursery rhymes! Sally sings each song line by line and the group echoes back until everyone knows it off by heart. You can hear some examples of the Singing Mamas songs in the video below.
At the end of the session there is time for a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit and a chance to chat to other attendees.
