โ€˜Sport holds a special placeโ€™: how one man helps his father with Alzheimerโ€™s Matt Singleton is a gerontologist who has written a book around the 1966 World Cup which aims to stimulate memories

It was a year ago since โ€œlooking back at โ€ฆ The 1966 World Cupโ€ was published in collaboration with @alzheimerssoc.bsky.social, with foreword by Sir Geoff Hurst and audio read by legendary #football commentator Clive Tyldesley. See the article in The Guardian:

I agree with John. If I didnโ€™t already have a copy, Iโ€™d be delighted to receive a copy of this for Fatherโ€™s Day! If, like me, your dadโ€™s living with #dementia, then a Cognitive #Book is the perfect alternative. Take a look: www.cognitivebooks.co.uk/buybooks

That people with #dementia โ€œarenโ€™t interested in anything anymoreโ€. And, of course, โ€œpeople with dementia canโ€™t readโ€. We have plenty of evidence that both of these are - for most - huge misconceptions!

Re-United. If you were lucky enough to have seen them you told your kids about it. If you were the kid, you listened. We too are saddened by the passing of the amazing #denislaw

Cognitive #Books not only bring joy to, and are great activities for, people living with #dementia, but are relevant to others too. For example, weโ€™ve received great feedback from some of those living with - or working with - #Autism Spectrum Condition, depending on their needs. โš™๏ธ๐Ÿ“š
