We are proud to be supporting a range of nature based activities for people with dementia and their carers in Cornwall
Walking group
Where? St Austell and Bodmin
When? Bodmin every other Monday, St Austell every Wednesday
Details – Our walks are growing in popularity and we are pleased to welcome new faces nearly every week. We’ve had a few people contact us regarding their mobility and whether they’d be able to come along. Don’t worry, this isn’t a hiking group, we walk at a leisurely pace, some with mobility aids and we make plenty of rest stops – we even bring along some portable chairs!
No need to book just turn up, we’d love to see you.

This walking group is in partnership with Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

Hi !
I co-founded and run a Creative Carers Group in Hereford called Rejuvenate ! You can find us on Facebook. I have just re-visited your page as we are always looking for new ideas. What a lot of resources on here.
I was wondering if you could supply any hard copy leaflets etc or whether everything is downloaded.
I am also a Dementia Friend and on our local Dementia Partnership panel and it would be good to have some information to put to them at our next meeting in September.
Many thanks.

Hi Maggie,
Thanks for getting in touch, Rejuvenate sounds like a great project.
In order to save costs we don’t supply hard copies of any resources or leaflets you will need to download and print them yourselves.
We have more activities ideas and information on our website which may be useless for your Dementia Partnership panel. https://www.sensorytrust.org.uk/information/creative-activities/index.htm
Best wishes
