This proposal is for a 2-year project led by Music in Mind Remote (MIMR) a new company recently co-founded by University of Manchester and Manchester Camerata.MIMR has specifically been founded to scale the joint work and IP both organisations have been delivering for more than a decade using music therapy-based activity to help improve health outcomes and quality of life for people living with dementia in care home settings.For the last 12 years, Manchester Camerata has delivered music therapy-based activity to people living with dementia. Their unique approach uses improvisation to help people living with dementia express themselves and communicate with others. These sessions help reduce frustration, enable new connections to be made, and have a profound effect on daily life.But delivering face-to-face activities with musicians in care homes can only ever reach a very limited number of the 850,000 who have dementia in the UK.This is because staff do not always have the skills to support the activities, and it is very expensive to provide.That is why we have decided to build a platform that can deliver our music for dementia programmes online. This solution will incorporate online training for care professionals, and online delivery of programmes.Manchester Camerata already works in close partnership with the University of Manchester, which has jointly founded the new MIMR company. They will license IP to the MIM company to support delivery of this programme, making sure that what we develop really meets the needs of people with dementia and providers in care homes.We are also working with an organisation called Social Sense, which already has an app used by people with dementia. By building our product within an existing platform we think we will be able to reach, and help, more people.By the end of the project we will have tested, effective product ready to be used in care home and community settings.

该提案是由曼彻斯特大学和曼彻斯特卡梅拉塔最近共同创立的一家新公司 Music in Mind Remote (MIMR) 领导的一个为期两年的项目。MIMR 的成立是为了扩大联合工作和知识产权，这两个组织十多年来一直在利用基于音乐疗法的活动来帮助改善护理院环境中痴呆症患者的健康结果和生活质量。在过去 12 年里，曼彻斯特卡梅拉塔已经交付了 针对痴呆症患者的基于音乐疗法的活动。他们独特的方法利用即兴创作来帮助痴呆症患者表达自己并与他人沟通。这些课程有助于减少挫败感，建立新的联系，并对日常生活产生深远的影响。但是，在英国的 85 万痴呆症患者中，与音乐家进行面对面的活动只能覆盖非常有限的人数。这是因为工作人员并不总是具备支持这些活动的技能，而且提供这些活动的成本非常昂贵。这就是为什么我们决定建立一个平台，可以在线为痴呆症项目提供音乐。该解决方案将整合护理专业人员的在线培训和在线课程交付。Manchester Camerata 已经与曼彻斯特大学密切合作，共同创立了新的 MIMR 公司。他们将向 MIM 公司授权知识产权，以支持该计划的实施，确保我们开发的产品真正满足痴呆症患者和护理院提供者的需求。我们还与一个名为 Social Sense 的组织合作，该组织已经拥有一款可供痴呆症患者使用的应用程序。通过在现有平台上构建我们的产品，我们认为我们将能够接触并帮助更多的人。到项目结束时，我们将拥有经过测试的有效产品，可用于疗养院和社区环境。
