The annual conference at Key Changes is a well-established annual event, attracting music therapists from around the country. In recent years Key Changes has been inspired by key note presentations from such as Ros Blackburn, Amelia Oldfield, Valerie Sinason, Julie Sutton and Tony Wigram.

 

The focus for 2012 will be Evaluation and Research and their importance in the current climate. It will be of interest to practising Music Therapists as further inspiration and for CPD.

We hope the day will provide a springboard to encourage therapists’ thinking around evaluating their own work and gathering the evidence.

 

This year’s conference will include presentations on:

 

Measuring the impact of music therapy - Veronica Austin, therapist and Course Tutor, Roehampton

The Outcomes Star for working with children - Jackie Lindeck, Coram Institute

Responding to the needs for Evidence - Giorgos Tsiris, BAMT research network

Youth at Risk research project – Phillippa Derrington and Louise Neale, therapists

 

Three shorter presentations will run concurrently:

i. An outcomes tool for working with ASD children - Martin Lawes.

ii. Pre-school work: a 10-week evaluated project - Susannah Wettone

iii. Mental Health: the value of qualitative evidence - Cathy Rowland & Beccy Read

 

A practical session will enable further reflection on providing the evidence: ‘Jumping through hoops’.
