Dementia Friendly Activity: Christmas Decorations

National Waterfront Museum is hosting a dementia-friendly Christmas decorations session on Thursday 3 December, from 1.30pm. It's a craft afternoon for people living with dementia and those who support them, and it runs for about two and a half hours.

The session starts with a welcome in a dedicated space, and the main activity is making decorations for a Christmas tree. It's a light craft session, so it's more about the doing than the end result. Along with the making, there's music and Christmas treats, and the afternoon includes a visit to one of the galleries. Breaks and refreshments are provided throughout, so there's plenty of time to stop and chat rather than rushing through.

It's designed to be a warm, accessible experience inside the museum, with no long distances to walk. That makes it a good shout if you're coming with someone who finds a big day out a bit daunting. The whole thing is free, but booking is essential, so you'll need to get your name down in advance. It runs from 1.30pm on 3 December at the National Waterfront Museum in Swansea.
