For the foreseeable future we will be offering a free two hour ‘Taster’ session for new One2One clients. We really want to help more people to experience our specialist One2One service with an experienced ‘Memory Companion’ so we are offering a chance for people to try the service to find out if it is right for them.
We believe that ‘Life doesn’t stop with dementia’ and our One2One service is carefully tailored for each individual’s personality and needs. The service is 100% people centred; clients get to choose how they would like to spend their time and loved ones have peace of mind knowing that they are in the best hands.
Once we have full understanding of the best way to move forward with a client, we appoint a personal ‘Memory Companion’ to help stimulate old memories and create new ones. As rapport and trust develops, our ‘Memory Companion’ will encourage the return of lost skills and offer opportunity for discovering new ones. We are also there to support and guide loved ones and commit to walking with the family on the dementia journey for as long as we are needed.
Our personalised sessions are so varied. Clients choose their favourite activities such as walking in the outdoors, visiting aquatic centres or museums, enjoying arts and crafts, interacting with their favourite animals and of course indulging in some tea and cake at a garden centre.
Sometimes our clients choose to stay at home baking, listening to music, playing games or just enjoying interacting with their ‘Memory Companion‘.
The offer is available to anyone who has not yet used the One2One service. For more information or to discuss arranging a ‘Taster session’ please call the EDC team on 01245 363 789.
