Dementia-friendly walk in Oostnieuwkerke

Dementia is a complex condition that affects the lives of millions of people around the world, both those living with it and their loved ones or caregivers. It can be a challenging and emotional journey, but with the right knowledge and approach, we can make this journey a little easier. During this dementia-friendly walk, we invite you to join us on a journey and grow closer together.

Because people with dementia can often still share many memories from the past, which boosts their self-confidence and self-esteem. It brings peace and relaxation, and in this way, the past provides a foundation for daily life and the future. A positive effect, therefore, not only for those with dementia but also for those around them. We often refer to the act of recalling memories as “reminiscence.” And that is the purpose of this dementia-friendly walk.
