Grandad Forgot My Name

You may associate us with archaeology, environment and ecology but we dabble in all sorts of fascinating subjects. And here’s a totally new one for you today…

Our interactive stories into dementia care have now been released!!

Dementia is a global epidemic, affecting millions worldwide. You’ll be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t know someone affected by dementia. This has caused a major problem that there just isn’t enough resources to help provide the pastoral support to those with dementia and their families. Children find it especially difficult to understand.

So where do we come in? Well as you know, we love public engagement and digital tech. And so, we’ve been quietly working away at making interactive digital storytelling media focused on helping children (and adults) understand dementia in their loved ones. But of course, why listen to us talking about it when you can try it out for yourselves! Just follow this link and click “Run Book”

This is completely new for us and for healthcare. Does it work? Is it worthwhile? The honest answer is, we dont know! But we’re ecstatic to find out.

Enjoy!
