Transformance Music’s Ben Sellers has been working with the Women’s Group at Room to Heal, a healing community for refugees and asylum seekers who have survived torture and other forms of organised violence. Together with guest artist Joyce Moholoagae, the women wrote several songs and, as part of the process, developed confidence, leadership skills and their group identity. In the words of Mary Raphaely, the group psychotherapist ‘they really are walking tall since writing this song with you‘.
One of the songs, ‘Power of Love’ was performed at the Room to Heal summer party, and is now available for download here: http://room2heal.bandcamp.com/ . All proceeds go to continue the work of Room to Heal.
