Introduction
Arts in Health practice with people living with dementia and their families. The Memoria group provides a regular creative space for participants to reflect and share experiences of dementia, reducing fear, loneliness and isolation. The group have shared their experiences of living with dementia through Life Story Theatre performances, conferences and community venues since 2014 in order to demystify and reduce stigma around dementia.
