People who like old style music and who might be feeling isolated are being encouraged to join the Forget Me Not Community Choir in south Roscommon for a Tuesday morning sing along.

The choir was formed in recent years for those living with Alzheimer's and Dementia and used to meet every fortnight at the community centre in Monksland.
