Alice speaks to Laura Westcott; musician, mental health campaigner and co-founder of 'Phoenix Rising' about 'Music For Mental Wealth' (MMW).
MMW aids the prevention of mental health challenges in the music industry and focuses on preventative measures for artists, performers and those around them.
We hear what inspired Laura to found 'Music for Mental Wealth' which lead to the creation of 'Music with Meaning', raising awareness of mental health through the power of music and sharing experiences.
