    Jo's 10K Challenge

    I hit the big Six-oh this year and needed a challenge so here I go again on another 10K with my friend and trainer Julia to keep on the right track - and hopefully to raise some funds for Playlist a charity I have been involved with for quite some years.

  • Everyone should have a playlist

    Playlist for Life is the UK's leading music and dementia charity. We want everyone with dementia to have a unique, personal playlist with the soundtrack of their life because the music that gives you that flashback feeling can be a lifeline if you get dementia. Watch our film to find out more.

  • Understanding dementia

    Dementia is a word used to describe many diseases and their effects on brain health. Dementia is a life-limiting condition that gets worse over time. Memory loss is the most commonly known fact about dementia, but that is just part of the story.

  • What is a playlist?

    A playlist is just a list of songs or pieces of music. Your 'playlist for life' is all the songs or pieces of music that make up the soundtrack of your life. The tunes that give you that 'flashback-feeling' whenever you hear them; that take you back, to another time, person or place.

  • The science

    Music is neurologically special in the way that it stimulates many parts of the brain at once. This means that even if parts of the brain are damaged, music can still reach other parts.
