This week at Riverview Lodge Care Home, we proudly recognised Dementia Awareness Week by celebrating the joy, individuality, and meaningful connections of our residents through a variety of engaging activities.

From lively karaoke sessions filled with singing, dancing, and laughter, to fun “Guess the Character” games that encouraged conversation and memory recall, it has been wonderful to see our residents actively participating, socialising, and enjoying special moments together.

Throughout the week, residents also took part in bingo, quizzes, trivia games, reminiscence sessions, and our meaningful “Key to Me” sessions, all designed to support wellbeing, encourage communication, and celebrate each resident’s personal life story, interests, and experiences.

At Riverview Lodge, we understand the importance of providing activities that are not only enjoyable, but also purposeful and person-centred. Meaningful engagement can help promote confidence, reduce isolation, encourage cognitive stimulation, and most importantly, bring happiness and comfort to those living with dementia.

Dementia Awareness Week is a reminder that every person living with dementia has a unique story, personality, and voice that deserves to be valued, respected, and celebrated every single day.

Thank you to our amazing residents and dedicated team for making this week so special.
