Sports for Veterans with Dementia

​

Veterans with dementia often miss out on activities they once enjoyed. Our goal is to raise awareness and encourage organizations to adapt their rules to better include individuals with disabilities.

​

We are launching inclusive community activities, led by skilled volunteers, designed for people living with dementia and their loved ones.

​

With additional funding, we hope to offer more health and wellbeing programs that support ongoing participation and improve quality of life. The new Sports for Veterans with Dementia Programme aims to create a meaningful impact for veterans and their families.

We’re introducing a range of sporting and wellness events to our groups, including:

• Curling

• Walking with Dementia Group

• Armchair Zumba

• Indoor Skittles

• Walking Football for Dementia

• Basketball for Dementia

• Darts

• Table Tennis

• Tennis

We also plan to collaborate with sports clubs to ensure people with dementia are included, rather than excluded, from these opportunities.
