The library has just taken delivery of some gorgeous books published by Pictures to Share. The books are specifically aimed at dementia sufferers and the pictures have been carefully chosen. The books have a variety of colour and black and white pictures, drawings and photographs to evoke a memory or act as a starting point for conversation. There are also some words to go with the pictures -sometimes a quote or words from a well-known song.
The books can be borrowed to use with patients and their families or if you are caring for a family member with dementia you may want to take one home on loan. You can also borrow more of the Pictures to Share books from Staffordshire Public Library service if you are a member.
