Herts Musical Memories

In light of F Hinds’ milestone, staff from the store will be celebrating by giving something back to the local community. The branch has teamed up with local registered charity Herts Musical Memories, which helps support those with dementia through singing and music.

Singing and music helps to stimulate memories for those with dementia whilst entertaining and relaxing listeners at the same time. Founded in April 2017, Herts Musical Memories is committed to providing stimulating music sessions where families can share happy and moving moments together.

Win a Gold & Diamond Necklace!

To help raise money for the charity, F Hinds in Garden Square is hosting a prize draw which is open to everyone. The top prize is a 9ct white gold and diamond wave necklace and earrings set worth £499; donated by F Hinds, with a £50 and £30 F Hinds gift card as second and third prizes. Prize draw tickets can be purchased from F Hinds in Garden Square for £2 each until Saturday 21st September.

On 21st September, Herts Musical Memories will join F Hinds in store to perform some songs, pick the prize draw winners and spread the word about this good cause.

Kerry Brabant, founder of Herts Musical Memories, comments: “We’re delighted to be teaming up with F Hinds to celebrate their Letchworth branch’s 45th anniversary. To have an established local family business like F Hinds offer support to us is tremendous. Raising funds is always a challenge making their help all the more important ensuring that our much-loved local singing group for people with dementia and their carers continues to flourish.”

“F Hinds Letchworth has been serving the local community and making happy memories for the last 45 years and we look forward to doing so for many years to come. In branch we’re both excited and proud to be celebrating this milestone with the community.”
