Animal Therapy! 🐇 🐢 🐶 For those living with dementia, sensory engagement is so important. The soft fur of a rabbit, the vibrant colors of a bird, and the soothing sounds of gentle chirps can awaken memories, reduce anxiety, and spark meaningful moments of connection. 🐇
There’s no rush, no pressure—just calm interactions, kind touches, and warm smiles.

For those living with dementia or memory challenges, these activities are more than just games—they're a gentle way to reconnect, reminisce, and feel confident. 🧩 ✨

🎉 B-I-N-G-O and Bingo was the Game-O! 🥳 Bingo is more than just a game here at Oakleigh - it’s a chance for the residents to socialise and stay mentally active! And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love shouting BINGO and winning prizes!
