Following this great advent calendar every day - better than chocolate...
Morning Twitteroos!!! It’s the start of Christmas and here’s the first window of our #dementiaadventcalendar for how YOU can help US to be involved.....
We love reading about people creating life story books. Thanks @juliagapowell for sharing this. At @MyMemoryJournal we're working to make it easy for people to create life story books that combine photos, music and video.
I've been helping mum remember who she is. I've finally finished her "This is my life book" before she goes into a home. It will help carers know who mum is & can be used to help mum when she needs prompting about her past. It's great for discussion. bonusprint.co.uk/view-online…

Thanks @ShobnaGulati for writing this blog. In our work we see opportunities for new ways of creating support networks for people living with #dementia
"If we can help people talk about dementia, we create support networks and enable people to find information that can be a real lifeline. Let's get talking." Read this powerful blog from actress @ShobnaGulati dementiablog.org/every-day-e…

Whilst we love using technology always good to be reminded of the importance of getting outside
Even when the weather is dull and damp accessing the outdoors improves mood, aids cognition and bone health. If there are steps in and out of the home, consider if these are in good condition and if they require a rail which may aid balance and confidence. #WithOTuCAN
Who would have thought that being diagnosed with #dementia leads to making cupcakes with @SuranneUK ? huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/p…
Good on you Ron! Thanks for sharing.

Good reminder that #dementia friendly activities don't always have to be indoors the-gazette.co.uk/news/17685…
We like reading about people creating personal digital reminiscence. With technology you can combine memories, photos, music and video - and love designing creative ways of doing this.
Awareness is slowly growing that #dementia shouldn't be any more or less embarrassing that any other condition
After inspirational @Vicky_McClure program on the #dementia choir good to see the research and how it's being used nottingham.ac.uk/alumni/news…
Just because you are living with #dementia in a care home doesn't mean you can't create "vibrant, thought-provoking and joyful" artwork: kcwtoday.co.uk/2019/05/demen…
