As part of the Bring Me Laughter Festival, we're thrilled to officially release 'With You', a handbook of creative activities for carers living at home with partners or family members with dementia.
The handbook suggests low-tech, inexpensive and inspiring ways of using music, movement, art-making, story-telling and word play in your daily routine to help support and reassure, encourage and enliven and to promote relaxation.
With You was commissioned by The Dukes and funded by the Evan Cornish Foundation.
If you have found the handbook useful please share the details with others in the dementia community.
If you would like to order further books for yourself or your organisation, it is available online via the link below.
Click on Preview to read the whole book online or you can order as many books as you want. With VAT and shipping on top of the £2.55 basic cost, a single book will cost you around £10 but it becomes much cheaper if you make a bigger order.
If you have any further queries, please contact our Inclusive Film & Theatre Officer Gil Graystone: gil@dukeslancaster.org
