Take me with you to that farmer’s market we love so much! Many people with dementia love the fresh air, fall vegetables and browsing the vendor booths at the market. It’s an experience that engages all the senses – sights, smells, tastes, touch and more. If you’re caring for someone with dementia, make it an outing for both of you. Get in the know with the #StillMeYYC community.

Whether it's a favourite song, reading stories, or sharing a moment of laughter, these little joys create meaningful connections and lasting memories. If you or someone you know is on this journey, this blog is for you.
