Those with dementia can often find activities involving co-ordination, concentration and dexterity difficult and often find themselves excluded; however with an adaptable approach inclusiveness is guaranteed. Social and therapeutic horticulture can be a very positive undertaking for those diagnosed with dementia – those groups who regularly work with SPACE 2 GROW find great benefit arising.
