Cognitive Stimulation Therapy

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy is a popular and successful way of treating the symptoms of mild to moderate dementia, it is also most importantly very enjoyable, especially when you partner with your local nursery to carry out these sessions.

CST is a programme of activities, carried out over several weeks in small groups, with each session covering a different topic, designed to improve the mental abilities and memory of someone with dementia. 

In this week's session at Piper Court in Stockton we had a sing along, followed by painting, finished off with our very own toddler friendly version of afternoon tea, orange juice and biscuits of course! 

We would like to express our biggest thank yous to Rosedene Nursery for helping us make these sessions possible.
