We run the Open Door Memory Cafe in Blackburn, Lancashire UK, so we aren’t in a residential setting. It’s the 3rd birthday of the memory cafe next month, and we’re wondering about playing party games. We are of course having a birthday cake and a musical session! We’ve put a quiz together with questions relating to the number 3, but we did wonder about some party games. Have you any suggestions for these? They can’t really be very active games, and I really don’t want to patronise our lovely guests. Any suggestions for what works well for you would be very welcome! Thank you! Elizabeth
I cant rate this site high enough. The activities and ideas are fantastic, varied and very relevant to our service. I log on every morning to see what's new and I'm always printing and using your materials. Honestly the best site I know of to provide activities for older people.
