There is a session held regularly at Ponds Forge for dancing with dementia – I will be visiting with a client this month on 24 August between 1-3pm. If you know someone who might like to move to music why not come along and give it a go. You can say hello to me too!
Dancing with Dementia
Published by Treasured Time
I originally trained as a SEN(M), and worked in that sector caring for the elderly for around 9 years. After this I changed pathways and moved to administration work, being employed in both the NHS and private sectors at various stages of my career. Between 2002 to June 2017 I worked in a Fertility Clinic as Clinic Director, and then Quality lead providing a patient centered service. This was a key element of my job, and I enjoyed listening to patients and improving standards of service through patient feedback and audit. It was through doing voluntary work though that I realized I wanted to work alongside people more directly again and offer them support in the community by forming a companionship service. I set this up in 2017 and have now established a befriending and support service for people at home that need help to remain independent. View all posts by Treasured Time
