Brain Train offers engaging, friendly activity sessions for people living with dementia in the Aylesford and Maidstone areas.
Our purpose is to actively stimulate and engage the brain through fun, structured activities. Sessions are designed to help maintain cognition, recall information, and promote confidence and well-being. We use cognitive stimulation therapy techniques in a relaxed, social environment, helping members keep a sense of identity and self-worth.
- Enjoyable, interactive sessions with opportunities for socialising and forming friendships.
- Therapeutic activities include art, music, singing, reminiscence therapy, and gentle exercise for coordination and reaction.
- Orientation and discussion to connect with the community and current affairs.
- Mental activities to support language, numbers, and thinking skills.
- Carers' break: Our group gives carers valuable time off from their caring role.
Sessions are run by trained facilitators, all with enhanced DBS checks, and at least one certified first aider present. Groups are purposely kept small to build confidence and encourage sharing experiences.
