Living Memories CIC We create reminiscence resources & services that help reduce isolation of older people, including those living with dementia.

The Living Memories Online portal offers access to a huge range of information & social history programmes, and newsreels from the late 1900s to the 1970s available to watch online, along with digital Reminiscence Resources to help trigger conversations. It aims to bring the past to life for older people, the people who care for them, and anyone interested in UK social and industrial history, including schools.
