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 absolutely love this site. I find the resources and ideas invaluable in my role as a Recreational Activities Officer in a large Nursing Home. The abundance of ideas, quizzes, and printable forms are helping me help the residents find their inner “fun” which had previously been missing. THANK YOU from myself and the residents!!
