Cultural group for people with dementia

Det skal du vide

Hillerød Library invites you to a new community - the cultural group - with a focus on brain training, socializing and literary experiences - specially designed for people with dementia. The cultural group meets every Thursday at 4:00 PM-5:30 PM in the safe environment of the library. Here, selected texts are read aloud, we look at artwork and photographs, and listen to good music. Participants are invited to conversation and reflection - at a pace and in a form where everyone can participate. The cultural group is led by reading guide Sabine Debruyne, who with her empathetic and warm-hearted approach creates a present space for participation. Sabine is based on Cognitive Stimulation Therapy and Guided Shared Reading, both of which are methods that strengthen brain functions through meaningful activity and conversation. The offer is free, and no preparation is required - just the desire to listen, share and be together.
