The Sounds Familiar Project has been a partnership with the British Library, University of Leicester and Leicestershire County Council’s Participation Team. It was interested in the creation and delivery of sound reminiscence sessions for people living with dementia with a view to stimulating memories and improving their well-being.
Evaluators found that feedback from the sessions and the whole project was positive.
