Volunteer Photographer for a Community Project

Strike-A-Chord is a fun-filled project in which the Over-50's learn how to play the keyboard. We need a photographer who can capture these memories on camera.

Your clicks and snaps can make them glad!

Isolation and loneliness are two of the fiercest challenges our ageing population face. If unchecked, these challenges can deteriorate an individual's health and adversely impact their mental wellbeing. Using the power of music, Strike-A-Chord enables the Over-50's to overcome these challenges by teaching them how to play the keyboard.

Based in Birmingham, Strike-A-Chord is a not-for-profit fun-filled project in which the Over-50's and Over-60's learn how to play the keyboard. This activity fosters togetherness and social interaction, as well as helps the ageing population overcome isolation and loneliness. It is truly an uplifting experience!

The photographer will capture as many moments as possible on camera by taking photographs during the session. A session has a duration of one hour and would typically have between 5 - 10 participants. We conduct Strike-A-Chord sessions in various locations across Birmingham. Thus, we don't have a fixed location.

You will not be expected to attend or photograph all the sessions. However, we would expect that, whenever your schedule permits, you will avail yourself for this life-enriching project.

Does this sound like a role for you?

The fun that these precious Over-50's enjoy, may last a moment. However, the photographs you take of them will be memories they (and their families) cherish for a lifetime!
