We have recently set up a Memories Corner in the Library and have just received some new comfy chairs . We have a range of resource books which are part of the Suffolk Libraries catalogue. These are available for browsing and for loan They are suitable for dementia sufferers and their carers.
We also have some memorabilia, donated by library users, to be used as a stimulus for conversation and reminiscence. We will soon be able to offer a range of themed Reminiscence Packs, or Memory Boxes, for library users to borrow for use at home.
Reminiscence is beneficial for people at various stages of memory loss and also for those with communication difficulties. Our packs will contain a variety of multi-sensory triggers to assist people in relating to the world around them using different senses.
