Support for Older Patients and Those Living with Dementia

At MWL NHS Charity, we are committed to creating a calm, comforting, and familiar environment for our older patients — especially those living with dementia. Our aim is to reduce distress, promote wellbeing, and enhance their hospital experience.

How Your Donations Help

Thanks to your generous support, we’ve been able to fund thoughtful and meaningful items that make a real difference:

🕰️ Day and night clocks – Help reduce confusion by clearly showing the time of day, supporting patients with dementia in maintaining a sense of routine.

📱 Specialist iPads with the My House of Memories app – Used by staff and volunteers to spark conversations, explore past memories, and connect through familiar objects and images.

🧳 Memory boxes – Filled with items that are personal or meaningful to patients, offering comfort, familiarity, and memory stimulation.

🧶 Twiddlemuffs – Hand-knitted sensory items that provide tactile stimulation, helping to soothe and reassure patients during their hospital stay.

Every donation makes a difference. 

Thank you!
