Abstract
Music really can reach out to suffering people, even when words and other communicating forms cannot. Lesley Schatzberger explains how a little girl's death led to a new movement in children's palliative care. Jessie's Fund helps seriously ill children through the therapeutic power of music used as a tool for communication, with a major focus on working with children in hospices. Mike White, Director of Projects at the Centre for Arts and Humanities in Health and Medicine (CAHHM) at Durham University writes about a music project in intensive care units in the North East
