Gwynedd Virtual Dementia Tour
There will also be the opportunity to have a virtual reality experience on the dementia simulator (bus) which is visiting the centre on the 5th of October. The dementia simulator gives a person with a healthy brain an experience of what dementia might be like. It will be an invaluable experience to help better understand how people with dementia navigate environments, tasks, and the senses. Booking is essential for the bus, and spaces are limited. Please contact Emma Quaeck (emmajaynequaeck@gwynedd.llyw.cymru) or call 07768 988095.
