Video: Dementia patients take trip down memory lane We care for a lot of people with dementia and it is really important for those with dementia who are mobile to have a destination. They can visit the pub or the post office - this makes it a walk with a purpose, which is so important. When they are there they can look at the memorabilia that we have from the time. Our staff can then start a conversation about with them. The designers of the village carefully studied photographs from the 1950s to help them recreate Memory Lane. They found the memorabilia from the period by combing through charity shops, online auction sites and family collections. Grove Care hopes to hold carol singing at Christmas and May pole dancing in the spring.
