We develop informative and effective 'Personalised Dementia Support Profiles' for people at all stages of dementia.

Our main mechanism of learning is based around one to one and group activities. The processes we use are in their foundation a form of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy, but very much directed by the individual requiring support and are completely focused on understanding the person, their goals and what is required to manage their unique long term wellbeing. Prevention is better than cure!!

Early intervention is vital!! Our system goes several steps further than CST!

It is never too late to take steps to manage wellbeing with positive lifestyle choices and our aim is to point to that which may benefit a person and support it as an intervention.

Good nutrition/hydration, exercise/body movement, social interaction, laughter, mental stimulation and a healthy dose of autonomy, love and kindness are all vital to an individual in one way or another. once these needs are met each person then has their own needs and requirements. These can change over time and require adaptation.

We use a range of client specific and co-developed activity plans as a way of creating relationships based on positivity, trust and respect. Activities and meaningful engagement facilitates learning and exploration into a person’s wellbeing needs from a detailed and holistic perspective.
