Produced in collaboration between Dr Jennifer MacRitchie, AgeUK Sheffield, and the Young-Onset Hub, Living with Young-Onset Dementia: Our Music, Our Voice seeks to challenge the stereotypes often associated with music and people living with dementia, as well as exploring new tools and technologies to support interacting with music. The film is made by real voices from the dementia community, centring their diverse experiences and interactions with music.
It was reported in BBC news over here.
The work that I and Roger did with Cardshark features in the film!
The film has some really heartfelt testimony underlining the tragedy of the disease as well as the amazing opportunity to do some truly impactful research in this area (which is what we hope our BRIDGES Network will do).
