For the third year of its arts and older people grants programme, Barings focused on "Creative Homes in Creative Communities"; supporting work to link different types of residential care settings into the community around them through the creative power of the arts.
The Sage Gateshead got its £30,000 for a two-year programme of singing in care homes and care settings for people with dementia and their families and carers in Northumbria and the region.
