Memory Packs
Designed to help people at various stages of memory loss, their carers, friends and family, our reminiscence packs help to stimulate the mind and encourage the sharing of memories.
What is a memory pack?
Each ‘memory pack’ is a collection of picture books, photographs, jigsaws, DVDs, music and other resources on a theme.
Topics include:
- Daily Life
- Local interest e.g. Old Market Square
- Holidays
- Working Life
- Childhood
- Specific decades e.g. 1950s
