This week, Gilli talks to Janet Bowers, non- executive Director of Dignity in Dementia. Janet oversees all aspects of volunteering for the organisation and she chats to Gilli about how she became involved with Dignity in Dementia and the important and essential role that volunteers play.
Di Smillie is back with another of Di’s Helpful Hints for family carers supporting people living with dementia in their own homes. This week Di talks about the nature of memory and how objects, photographs, sound and smell can trigger positive memories for the people they care for.
