Scottish Football Reminiscence Project
June 2009 saw the launch of a initial year long project which aimed to provide reminiscence therapy, by means of packs of materials containing images of old match programmes, famous players, team line ups and actions shots, to people with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia.
Studies into the effectiveness of the initial work, funded by Museums Galleries Scotland and in collaboration with Alzheimer Scotland, Culture & Sport Glasgow, the Scottish Library & Information Council and Glasgow Caledonian University, suggested the project produced beneficial results and consequently the materials continue to be made available to interested parties.
For further details on the project within the Edinburgh area, please send an email to the Trust's Curator, Tom Wright, or alternatively contact him on 0131 556 6820 (daytime).
