dementia, communities & environments

Our Creative Spaces in the Community project is using the outdoors and nature-focused activities to build social networks, foster independence and enhance the physical and mental health of older people living with dementia in rural communities in Cornwall.

We'll be using this section as a place to generally share our thoughts on dementia and those it affects, including relevant projects, events, activities etc. If we've read it, written it, seen it or heard it and we think it should be 'out there' then here's where we'll share it.






Carers Week 2013

We have news on our community events happening during Carers Week this year.

In partnership with Age UK, Alzheimer's Society and Arts for Health Cornwall, we'll be providing  home carers the opportunity to try several of our creative activities (and those that do will get a free resource kit) that can support them in a domestic environment. In addition, professionals and people with dementia will be there to provide advice, information and support. There will be lots happening for everyone who pops in!

Check out the Events page on this blog for more information or call the office on 01726 222900 if you would like to know more.

Members of Bude Memory Cafe enjoyed learning a new
nature-based activity through Creative Spaces; so can you!
