About this event
Love to Move is a fun, age and dementia friendly seated movement programme to music. It is suited to older adults, those living with dementia, those with limited mobility, MS and Parkinson’s, and their carers.
The programme is chair based and is a great way for family and friends to join their loved ones in a fun, positive, and fulfilling session together. Participants can wear their usual, comfortable clothing.
Sessions led by British Gymnastics’ Love to Move deliverers.
After the class, there will be refreshments and time to chat.
“My mum who has Alzheimer’s absolutely loves these sessions – it’s a wonderful activity that we can do together and she really comes alive.”
“The programme has a demonstrable benefit in the physical, emotional, cognitive aspects of older people, and those having mild to advanced forms of dementia appear to benefit the most.” ~ Age UK
