Promoting Inclusion Through Mental Stimulation

MIND Active recognises that the increasing age of the population means that more older people are entering the care system.

Those people, in order to feel valued and useful members of society, need to keep active, not only physically, but also mentally.

MIND Active seeks to complement and build on activities available within residential homes; by doing so we hope to enhance the lives of those living in the care homes, as well as those who are caring for them.

MIND Active would like to thank the residents, their families and the staff of the participating care homes for their permission to use images on this website.
