Christmas can be stressful and emotionally challenging, especially for people with dementia and their families. Here are some tips to help you prepare. 💙

🕰️ It can be helpful to try to maintain some normal routines over Christmas.

🛒 Vital services like pharmacies, shops and GPs have reduced opening hours over the Christmas period. Planning ahead ensures you have everything you might need.

🕯️ Think about how you can adapt traditions so the person with dementia can continue to participate.

🎁 The person with dementia could help with festive preparations, such as wrapping presents, sending cards or putting up decorations.

🍽️ Consider if there’s any food the person with dementia prefers, and the portion sizes they normally eat.

🎬 You could ask a friend or family member to sit with the person with dementia, listen to music or watch your favourite film.

Hi Everyone,

If you have elderly neighbours please keep an eye on them during this hot weather.
Pour them a cold drink and close their curtains during the midday sun.
Please make sure they close their downstairs windows at night.

Thank you for reading
