On Tuesday we visited a local dementia-inclusive friendship group run by Age Well East. The ladies enjoyed hot drinks and biscuits, games, colouring and wordsearches. It was a very busy and lively session which is clearly extremely popular.
We were also lucky that there was a music therapist there on that day, who offered the opportunity to choose a song to play with lyrics or the music video on a projector screen to accompany it and add to the experience. Our group choice was Elvis- Hound Dog. The ladies enjoyed the music and watching other group members who were up dancing. Although none of us were up on the dancefloor, there was a performance of a hand jive which went down very well!
We plan to revisit the group in the future as it was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
