Why join this one-day course?
For a person with dementia, activity helps to retain a sense of purpose, supports wellbeing and can help the person to use remaining abilities and skills.
This one-day workshop will help you to understand what makes activities meaningful for the person you care for and for yourself as a carer.
We will be exploring how activities can be adapted to an individual’s needs and experiences and how they can meet our social and psychological needs.
