Session

At Shetland Library our Memories Scotland dementia-friendly sessions create a safe, warm space where we chat about days gone by. Reminiscing improves our well-being and sessions help tackle isolation and loneliness.

Our groups have found community, identity and self-worth in sharing about the past. Each session is a journey with a theme; we use images and objects as prompts. Playful, moving, fun and often surprising – all kinds of engagement are welcome.

Everyone has a voice, and we all leave smiling.  Come and share memories with us and find out for yourself!
