Memory Spinners
For people living with dementia
Our Memory Spinners groups meet weekly in Glasgow. Using music, storytelling, movement and the visual arts, the programme helps people with dementia and their carers relax, get creative and form new support networks.
Throughout each eight-week term, they share memories that are then incorporated into a relaxed performance for friends and family.
