About Us
Arts 4 Dementia believes that people with dementia, like the rest of us, have the right to enjoy life to the full. Engagement with arts brings benefits both for those with dementia and to their loved ones through sharing such experiences.
Arts 4 Dementia is a new charity helping to develop and co-ordinate high-quality intergenerational arts opportunities for people living with dementia in the community, stimulating brain activity and bringing inspirational relief from anxiety and confusion, for them, their families and carers.
Our Vision
A society where people with dementia are encouraged from diagnosis to engage in creative activities, challenges and adventures to enjoy their lives to the full, in society, without stigma.
Our Mission
Arts 4 Dementia’s mission is to inspire and re-energise people with dementia, to bring fulfilment to their lives and provide opportunities for quality time with their carers and loved ones through engagement with their chosen art form.
We aim to realise our mission through
