Hello friends

I'm coordinator at Eyres House Memory Support Planned Activity Group in Ballarat Australia. We run a program for those who have a diagnosis of dementia, or any other cognitive decline.

We have been closed to clients since the 20th March. I have been keeping in contact with my clients & carers by phone mainly. I have sent weekly correspondence with easy quizzes and activities found mostly on this website - thank you all. I have also made up activity packs & dropped them to some of my clients who are either higher functioning or have a carer that will help them. I have included craft & cooking packages. Colouring books & pencils, word searches, novels, DVD's & jigsaw puzzles.

But now I need your help, I'm running out of ideas. If any of you are doing the same, I'd love to know what ideas you have come up with.

Thanks you.

I love Golden Carers, it's a fantastic resource! I not only find great activities for my seniors to do but have also inspired me to make my own activities to share as well. Thanks so much & keep up the wonderful job!
