Tanya Walker is an established awarding winning singer songwriter, composer, musician &

As well as sessions being an opportunity for participants to have fun and learn to sing as a group, Tanya’s workshops utilise music and singing as a way of enhancing feelings of wellbeing, health, happiness, self-acceptance and confidence in participants.
