Engaging Dementia & HSE’s Dementia: Understand Together have created a booklet, Gardening Together, that shows you how to make your community garden a welcoming space for older people and people living with dementia. It has lots of tips and ideas for anyone planning to make a garden or plan outdoor activities – for people with dementia, their family, friends, carers and supporters.
Creating a garden can bring meaning and happiness into your life. It can help you make new friends and recall happy memories. We know that connecting with nature benefits body, mind and spirit. Many people look to gardening and other outdoor activities
to boost their health and wellbeing.
