Reminiscence

Reminiscence is a well-recognised form of memory therapy and is very popular because changes in mood and cognition are noticeable in participants. However, reminiscence can be applied to all age groups as everyone has memories and experiences in common they can discuss, so this activity is not just for those who are experiencing memory loss. Younger participants can also benefit from reminiscence sessions by thinking and talking about childhood experiences, music and toys.

Group sessions are popular, but one-to-one sessions can be invaluable to some participants. Session length and price can be negotiated for one-to-one participants.

Our reminiscence practitioners have many years of experience working in the care sector and gained their reminiscence qualifications at Age Exchange.
