Resonate Arts has offered five Remembering Together projects. People living with dementia and their family carers join in weekly reminiscence arts sessions to help reduce isolation through creating friendship and support. There is a big emphasis on having fun together, using the arts as a way of accessing the shared memories of our lives. Remembering Together is supported by a small artist team and a group of dedicated volunteers who are apprentices on the European Reminiscence Network's Remembering Yesterday, Caring Today training programme. 

The apprentices undertake a two-day course in Reminiscence Arts led by Pam Schweitzer, Director of the European Reminiscence Network. Please get in touch if you are interested in future apprenticeship schemes.

​Resonate Art’s Remembering Together projects have been presented at European Reminiscence Network conferences in Finland, Perpignan, Kassell and Barcelona.

Snapshots: reflections on the Remembering Together project​

Sarah Gudgin interviewed artists and visited participants at their home to write about their experience of Remembering Together project. 
 
This series of nine blogs explores her reflections. It was published weekly beginning in Dementia Awareness Week 2016.

Snapshots was part of the Remembering Together arts and reminiscence sessions and the RYCT apprenticeship scheme run in partnership with the European Reminiscence Network
