Dementia
Dementia is not a single illness but a group of symptoms caused by damage to the brain. It is more common in people over 65, but dementia can also affect younger people.

Tovertafel (magic tables)
Come and visit our magic tables and enjoy a series of 'light' interactive games developed for people living with dementia and other disabilities.
We welcome both adults and children with special needs to come and discover the magic tables and enjoy them with their families or carers. Organisations are also welcome to make bookings.
