At Ravencourt, we’re always looking for products that make a genuine difference in care.
Too often, people living with dementia or neurocognitive conditions spend long periods without meaningful engagement. That lack of stimulation can lead to frustration, agitation, and isolation.
That’s why we’re proud to stock Geri-Gadgets® - thoughtfully designed sensory tools that support calm, engagement and therapeutic interaction.
The idea behind Geri-Gadgets® came from a deeply personal place. Founder Angela Fairhurst created them while caring for her own mother with dementia, recognising that many challenging behaviours were often signals of unmet sensory needs.
“Caring for my mom with dementia taught me that many difficult behaviors are forms of communication trying to find their way out. When I couldn’t find tools that were safe, washable, and respectful for adults, I created Geri-Gadgets® to help bring calm and connection back into the moment.” Angela Fairhurst, Founder of Geri-Gadgets®
Today, these simple but powerful tools are used by caregivers, therapists, educators and care providers around the world.
This Mother’s Day, we’re reflecting on the love and care that inspires innovations like Geri-Gadgets®.
