The Garden

2015

The Garden; for people living with dementias, is an interactive installation. Bringing the outdoors in, it takes the audience on a multi-sensory journey through the seasons, creating a safe space for communication and creative engagement, particularly focusing on methods of non-verbal communication. 

This show still tours today, and carer training sessions for carers are run alongside. Recently we've adapted this project for learning disabled audiences.
