The Enabling Festival 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has created worlds of isolation, particularly for caregivers and persons living with dementia. The lack of physical interaction has reminded us of the importance to stay in touch.

This festival brings a carefully curated series of thought-provoking and engaging programmes, to showcase the experiences of persons living with dementia and their caregivers. A single touch can help reduce anxiety and make us feel secure, psychologically safe and less alone. It can even reduce pain and the feeling of social exclusion.
