Dementia Together Online<\/p><\/div>\n

The work builds on existing Lab4Living<\/a> research led by Claire and Helen but also recognises the need to adapt and to empower users during the challenges of the current global situation:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhilst we have been working hard to provide group interventions for people at an early stage of their dementia journey such as \u2018Journeying Through Dementia\u2019, we also recognise that these need to be accessed at home and be available to those who cannot access a group, particularly at times like these.” Helen Fisher<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A new theme of resources will be released every Tuesday and Friday starting with \u2018routine\u2019, \u2018music\u2019, \u2018photos\u2019 and \u2018sleep\u2019.<\/p>\n

\"Resource

Resource examples<\/p><\/div>\n

The resources comprise of conversation starters, things to try, games to play and signposting to other online resources. The content of these have been tried, tested and recommended by people with dementia either through \u2018Journeying Through Dementia<\/a>\u2019<\/b> or Alzheimer Scotland<\/a>. We will however be asking that people recommend resources as we go, making this a community of sharing tips and ideas.<\/p>\n
