I want to provide feedback regarding the war time songs, complete from the first line quiz.
Our residents gathered for Remembrance and placed poppies in honour of former residents and relatives who served their country.
I followed this with the song quiz and the residents were so uplifted. Thank you it was a great success.

Thanks so much for this idea. If it helps anyone I used a shorter version of this list (attached) and I've made a Spotify Playlist of all those songs -publicly available here https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2mWHbdAHJBRjhtANq5xUFa?si=64b4b14902e04265

I gave people a few minutes to think through answers first and then we had a sing-a-long answers session by jumping in at the appropriate point in each of the songs. Hope that helps.
