It’s official, AAM is friendly, happy and fun!

A massive thank you to participants, volunteers, and audience members for filling out our feedback forms over the past year. 

Feedback is hugely important to us; it helps us grow and understand the difference our projects make to the people who take part. We love getting the forms back and reading all the lovely things people have to say – it brings a huge smile to our faces!

We asked our project participants and the people who support them to tell us about the difference AAM and our activities made to them over the past year.  

100% said that taking part in our sessions had made them feel happy   

97% said taking part has helped them feel more confident 

97% said they feel they have a say in what happens in sessions 

92% said taking part helps them feel connected to friends 

89% said taking part has helped them get better at communicating  

When we asked what they enjoyed most about taking part in our sessions, they told us: 

“Being as a group with people I know and like” 

“Dancing, singing, seeing everyone”  

“Everything!” 

“I'm always happy at Movers and Shakers because I love the music and company. I'm more vocal when I sing to music and am very excited. I'm a happy soul.” 

We also asked everyone to tell us what three words they’d use to describe AAM. We were overwhelmed by the lovely words and thought we’d share them in this fun word cloud - that way we can look at them over and over again!
