Support
Our endorsed digital film clips offer new reminiscence therapy and support for people living with dementia and alzheimer's. These therapy clips can be accessed and used 24/7 along the entire dementia journey. This is a new non drug, non invasive badly required therapy. It supports and helps people living with dementia and alzheimer's to recapture part of their cherished personal past life and work memories. The clips have been researched and developed over three years. We have utilised the footage from our award-winning Scottish heritage archive with 530 hours of unique film. Our therapy help to find the places where cherished memories hide.
Validation
It took three years to develop our clips within our "A picture house of MY past memories" clip library. During that time we have involved and listened to people with dementia and alzheimer's. Essential to this new therapy was to listen also to carers and professionals in dementia and alzheimer's health care. We have also had contacts with academics from seven universities. All recognised the benefits such new dementia therapy will have for people living with dementia and alzheimer's and their carers. Our therapy gives people living with dementia and alzheimer's and their carers hope for a better future.
Therapy
According to Alzheimer’s UK 61% of people living with dementia feel unsupported. Our own research as award winning Scottish heritage film makers and outsiders in health care was astonished at what our research revealed. This to us and you is an unacceptable situation. Our new reminiscence therapy builds on the fact that people living with dementia and alzheimer’s have stronger memories about things in their non recent past. We have responded to that criteria with our therapy. You can access our library of clips called "A picture house of MY past memories" any time anywhere on your iPhone iPad and smart TV in a user friendly manner 24/7 to fit with your daily unpredictable routines. We harness 21st century technology to provide this.
