I provide workshops and creative events using drama and theatre with older people. I design, deliver, and evaluate workshops, trainings and performances.
What is this service?
We run Dementia Friendly screenings on the last Tuesday of each month at The Ritzy, with free tea/coffee and biscuits and a chance to socialise from 10.30am and the film starting at 11am. There are no adverts or trailers before these screenings, and there is a short interval about halfway through the film.
Dementia Friendly screenings aim to make cinema more accessible to local dementia communities by providing a fun and inclusive experience to enable people living with dementia, their families and carers to attend the cinema in a safe and welcoming environment.
Open to the general public too, the screenings are enhanced to suit the needs of people living with dementia: the lights are left on low, there are no adverts or trailers and the audience is allowed to move around – or sing along to any musical numbers! – should they wish to.
Tickets are £4 per person, with a free place for accompanying carers.
