Likes seeing good things happen!
Underground Sound is run as a drop-in project with an emphasis on music and other arts. We have a range of musical instruments including guitars and electric drums as well as decks, amplifiers, and a selection of CDs and records. We were also had an extremely generous donation of a recording booth from the X Centre in the summer 2013.
There is a large comfortable room (The Crow’s Nest) that is reserved for Underground Sound participants all day on Fridays. There are hot and cold drink making facilities available. The project is for people who are within the age range 18 – 30 years old who are experiencing or have experienced mental health difficulties as well as their friends and other younger people who have an interest in mental health issues.
The project provides opportunities for individuals to benefit from being part of a group, from learning new skills and from being creative using musical expression. It also helps to develop and build upon existing talents, learning from others and forming friendships which extend outside of the project.
Every Friday at the Bridge from 12 noon til 6pm.
Underground Sound is part of the Bridge Collective
The Bridge Collective's Mission is to be a company whose members are creating:
A democratic community where people who have experiences, beliefs, and feelings that have sometimes been labelled as mental illness are welcomed and can talk about these experiences freely, safely and without judgement; a place to participate in friendship, support, learning, teaching, discussion, being active, and making a valid contribution both within the collective and the wider community.
