AJDC article about The Dementia And Imagination research project website looking into the impact of art in improving life for people with dementia and their carers.

dementia and imagination

The Dementia And Imagination research project website is worth keeping an eye on if you are interested in the impact of art in improving life for people with dementia and their carers.


This UK project plans to involve up to 450 participants and respondents across three different geographical areas and assess how art can make a difference for people with dementia living at home and in residential care.

As well as providing information about the study, the website also aims to develop as a wider resource for those interested in the potential of art in this area.

DTA would like to show our respect and acknowledge the traditional custodians of these lands. We extend this respect to elders’ past, present and emerging, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We also pay respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples living with dementia and their carers.
