At Upbeat! sessions, we provide music making for d/Deaf, Disabled and Neurodivergent adults. Led by two professional music leaders, the sessions are friendly, relaxed and built around the participants’ needs. Participants love to sing, dance along to a musical number or keep to the beat with percussive instruments. Carers and support workers are welcome.

How to join

Due to our Monday group reaching capacity, from 21st April 2026, we are running a second group on Tuesdays at the same time. To be added to our waiting list please email musinc@middlesbrough.gov.uk.

From April 2026, Upbeat will cost £3 per person per session.
