The Cherish Connection Approach - Alongside you in Dementia

The Goal:

For our entire life we feel safe, seen and connected

Safe

Feeling protected from distress and overwhelm, steady in the moment

Seen

Feeling that who we are - our feelings, needs and experiences - are understood and recognised

The How:

Imagine a 3-foil propeller of Insight - Connection - Pulse

When all 3 are attended to, there is momentum, they flow together as one fluid movement and every day life gets lighter.

Neglecting any of the 3 and friction creeps in to every day life, and isn’t sustainable

Insight

Understanding the changes dementia brings

Connection

One-to-one support for people living with dementia

Connected

Feeling a sense of belonging - within ourselves and the beliefs we hold, to those we love, and to the wider world through nature, creativity & the arts

Pulse

The heartbeat that keeps everything going -those around the person diagnosed. Carer support
