Dementia Adventure
About Dementia Adventure
Dementia Adventure is an award-winning charity supporting people with dementia to get outdoors and experience the benefits of nature. We think differently about dementia, focusing on the individual, not the condition, and looking at what people can do rather than what they can’t. We have proven that with the right support, anything is possible. How we can help:Supported Dementia Respite Breaks: Dementia Adventure has been offering fully supported dementia breaks for well over a decade. We understand the complex and individual needs of people living with dementia, as well as how carers can benefit from having the chance to relax and enjoy time with their loved one while someone else takes care of all the planning and background tasks.
Free online information and support sessions for family and friends: ‘Understanding Dementia Better’ and ‘Mood and Motivation’ are free, online sessions for family and friends supporting someone with dementia at home. These informal sessions offer you a chance to meet others in a similar situation to you and will help you discover small and simple steps that can make a big difference.
Training and Consultancy: As the only charity solely to focus on dementia and nature, Dementia Adventure is a sector leader in working with organisations in blue, green, health and care sectors. The team will work with you to create inclusive services, so that people with dementia can engage more with nature and have regular outdoor experiences.
Research: Dementia Adventure’s work is rooted in the latest research. We also support other organisations in their research by assisting with joint funding proposals or project ideas and by sharing relevant research or resources you have written.
