Staff are dementia-aware, lights in the auditorium are left on low and the sound is a little lower than usual also. A year later in 2017, two more elements were added to Ludlow\u2019s \u2018A Life More Ordinary\u2019 programme &#8211; \u2018Moving to the Rhythm\u2019 and \u2018Songs for You\u2019. Both activities, led by very talented, specially trained professionals, have proved popular \u2013 offering a space for reminiscence, socialising and, most importantly, having fun.<\/p>\n<p>The Assembly Rooms are delighted to be able to continue all three activities from 2018 into 2019 with the help of all their supporters. None of this work would be possible without it and, undoubtedly, those living with dementia (including those with a diagnosis, carers and families) would certainly miss out on a vital contribution to their ongoing wellbeing and quality of life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>02\/08\/2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A LIFE MORE ORDINARY &#8211;\u00a0DEMENTIA-FRIENDLY ACTIVITIES at the
