Introduction

What is ‘Dementia and Imagination’? Dementia and Imagination was a large arts and science collaboration of universities, artists, charities and providers of cultural services. Our programme of work explored how arts activities:

  • Are beneficial to people living with dementia and those who care for them.
  • Help us understand the experience of living with dementia.
  • Help raise public awareness of living with dementia.

We did this through five inter-linked projects. This research summary highlights the first phase of a project.
