Case Study: Music for My Mind scales personalised dementia music therapy with DabApps

Music for My Mind enables 1,300+ families to create playlists in 15 minutes with DabApps

Music for My Mind, a charity improving wellbeing for people living with dementia through personalized music, faced a challenge scaling their effective but paper-based and manually administered program. They partnered with DabApps to develop a cost-effective digital solution that would increase accessibility while preserving their research-led methodology.

DabApps designed and built two connected web applications: a research platform for practitioners to streamline sessions and a self-service platform for families to create playlists remotely. This solution integrated with Spotify for immediate access. The digitized platform from DabApps significantly expanded reach, reduced administrative overhead, and enabled over 1,300 families to use the service, with 90% reporting a positive lift in mood and 77% experiencing reduced anxiety.
