Much of Pete's work in areas related to mental health comes through his role as lead artist in various projects run by Sound It Out a Midlands based community music organisation. One such project that Pete has been involved with since 1999 (and is now Artistic Director of) is Musical Connections. Through individual and group work, concerts and recordings, Musical Connections works with adults with specific needs - mainly mental health service users - to encourage creativity, collaboration and increasing wellbeing.
