All Aboard

National lockdown made 2020 a difficult year for all of us. For some, it meant increased isolation and loneliness, something that can particularly affect people living with dementia. In response, National Maritime Museum began a project with Age Exchange called ‘All Aboard’’. This used stories of sea voyages contained in journals and diaries to inspire memories and creativity around the subject of travel and better connect with people living with dementia and their carers.
