I currently have all males in my High Care Memory Support Unit. They have sight, hearing and hand co ordination problems. Does any one have any ideas of interesting activities that I can run for them.

Hi Joanne, A simple activity is getting a large sized muffin tin and 12 small yellow balls (they are stress balls you get from a cheap shop) and get them to put them into the muffin tin and also take them out. There is a montessori site for dementia that has lots of wonderful ideas. Good luck Mandy Oats
Thank you for many years of wonderful ideas that you have given me through Golden Carers. Your ideas and opportunities for networking with other activities people have been a great resource for me to access. Wishing your wonderful organisation all the best.
