Residents enjoyed a wonderful festive trip to Otter Garden Centre, taking in the beautiful Christmas displays and sharing smiles over a comforting hot chocolate. The decorations and twinkling lights sparked memories of Christmases past, leading to lovely conversations and familiar stories.

For people living with dementia, experiences like this are incredibly important. Seasonal sights, sounds, and scents can help unlock precious memories, reduce anxiety, and create a sense of comfort and connection.

A simple outing can bring so much joy - and this visit was a perfect reminder of the magic and meaning the festive season can bring.
