Activities at Home
Activities at Home is a practical workshop that will
assist carers looking after someone at home to plan engaging activities that
promote independence and wellbeing. By focusing on what the person with
dementia can still do, rather than the skills they have lost, you can enjoy
interesting activities and outings together. Ideas for activities that promote
thinking, using the senses, cultural and social connections, movement and
purpose will be explored.
The course is on 16/4/19 @9:30-12:30. More information and the registration sheet is here.
