Dementia is a broad umbrella term for neurocognitive disorders, while Alzheimer’s is a distinct disease marked by memory decline. Recognizing the differences is vital for effective management and support. #Dementia #Alzheimers #MemoryLoss

What an amazing day we had at @StirUni @artatstirling collection where Sarah and Emma took us around the collection to inspire ideas for inclusive public art. We then went on to create silhouettes in response with animator Jessica Langford to inform our artwork brief. #inclusive
Thanks to Joanne Boyle for coordinating and Xiaolin Shen and Dr Mary Njoki for throwing themselves into the experience and to our participants from Callander. We will next meet at @smithmuseum in January!
