People with dementia should be offered tailored activities to promote cognition, independence and wellbeing. All of the following interventions are suitable for people living with mild-to-moderate dementia:

• Group cognitive stimulation, which involves taking part in group activities to improve memory, language and problem-solving skills
• Group reminiscence therapy, which involves talking about things and events from a person’s past
• Cognitive rehabilitation or occupational therapy – this technique involves working with a trained professional, such as an occupational therapist, and a relative or friend to achieve a personal goal, such as learning to use a mobile phone or other everyday tasks. Cognitive rehabilitation works by getting the person living with dementia to use the parts of their brain that are working to help the parts that are not. In the early stages of dementia, it can help them cope better with the condition.
