TV screens for Dementia Care
In November 2018 the Friends donated £73,000 for the purchase of these TV screens for Dementia Care. These screens show TV programmes from many years ago, which bring back memories. This is very helpful to those suffering from Dementia where their short term memory is less effective than their long term memory.
