<p>What does it take to create spaces where young people can truly be themselves? In this special episode, we share highlights from our live webinar launching Being Seen, Being Heard,Feeling Connected , the Sing Up Foundation’s new publication on how singing and vocal work can support children and young people’s mental health.</p><p>Professor Graham Welch (UCL), Benjamin Turner (Spit Game / Rap Club UK) and Sing Up chair Katherine Zeserson explore Connection Theory, the ‘world of the edit’ that young people are navigating, why disengagement is often a survival strategy rather than apathy, and brand new research showing that what matters isn’t singing well, it’s singing together.</p><p>A conversation about youth culture, creative spaces, and the conditions that make singing genuinely transformative.</p>

The Humanising Power of Singing - with Dr Dave Camlin
<p>Singing has been part of human life for at least 230,000 years. Dave Camlin is a passionate believer in its power — and has spent his career exploring what that means for communities and young people.</p><p>A professor of music education at the Royal College of Music and Trinity Laban Conservatoire, a community musician, and a friend of Sing Up since the very beginning, Dave joins Baz and Celi to talk about why there's a synchronicity to singing together that goes deeper than just sound, what the research tells us about singing and trauma, and why group singing might offer something that very few other activities can: a safe way to practise connection. They also get into the challenges of reaching young people who say they don't like singing, what happens to music-making in schools when we treat it as performance rather than participation, and Dave's bigger argument — that singing together lets us experience, not just imagine, a kinder and more connected world.</p><p>Dave also shares his book Music Making and Civic Imagination and the research behind it.</p><p>Thought-provoking and wide-ranging.

Young Sessions: Music as Medicine
<p>Welcome to the second of our special Young Sessions episodes, where authentic voices reveal music's healing power. Hosts Baz Chapman and Celi Barberia continue their conversation with Afiya Lucombe-Davis from Lewisham Music, exploring how facilitators support young people's emotional expression without crossing into therapy territory. Then, performance poet Toni-Ann Gurdon sits down with two remarkable artists - rapper Mimi Mxnroe and H-Jay - for intimate conversations about using music as therapy, processing trauma through lyrics, and why authenticity beats perfection every time.</p><p>Discover how music becomes medicine when young people are given permission to be vulnerable and completely themselves. From processing difficult experiences through diss tracks to transforming pain into powerful spoken word, learn what happens when creativity meets healing - and why music often succeeds where traditional support falls short.</p><p>Hear honest discussions about music's limitations alongside its power, practical songwriting advice, and a stunning live performance of H-Jay's "Mirrors on Windows" - a spoken word piece about finding purpose through pain.</p><p>This episode explores the delicate balance between creative expression and emotional processing, revealing how safe spaces enable young people to transform their most difficult experiences into authentic art that heals both creator and audience.</p><p>Inspiring Voices is the podcast of the Sing Up Foundation, exploring how singing and vocal work support children and young people's mental health and wellbeing. Listen in and be inspired by the power of music to heal, connect, and transform lives.</p>
