You can now find our dementia-friendly #physicalactivity booklets at Carers Corner at the Lister Hospital in Stevenage.
Do you or someone you know need a copy?
➡️ For physical copies email: leisure@stevenage.gov.uk

What are our next steps:
1️⃣ Make the booklet available via memory clinics
2️⃣ Work with the Dementia Admiral Nurse to increase awareness of booklet across different wards at the hospital
