We held the first G&G session of Autumn yesterday and the gang worked really hard to spruce up the small community garden that they're working on. We took a walk around the space and looked for annual plants that had finished flowering, and then got stuck in to replace them with lots of cheerful colour that will keep the pots looking good all winter.
The changes in season are a great way to help people with dementia anchor themselves in the present - noticing changes in temperature, the differences in nature, the falling leaves, all these things can help to orient people within their surroundings and give an awareness of where we are in the year. Even just a few minutes spent outside can make a big difference!
If you (or someone you know) would like to join us for our October session, send us a DM, email, or contact for more details 😊🍁🍂
