Hello there,
I'm currently writing my dissertation on how textiles could help someone with dementia and I have a gap in my knowledge as to what textiles means to people.
Did you or your relative ever work in the textiles industry? Was it simply a hobby to knit or crochet etc? Did you/they have a particular love of clothing or interior furnishings? If the answer is yes to any of these, has this still been relevant after being diagnosed.
I would love to hear any stories you have, especially anyone with dementia themselves.
Thanks for your time
